Design Concepts

Scenario C
Scenario C locates the gym/recreation-wellness center on the Creative Arts and Tapia Triangle sites Creative Arts on the softball field site, the nursing/child care/research building on the south side of Holloway, the museum on 19th Avenue, and the conference center/hotel on 19th Avenue/Buckingham Way.

  • 2-parcel site can be phased

  • Separate buildings, connected by a bridge, allow events to be held concurrently
Minus:
