North Campus Illustrative Plan

Image by Building_UB
Guiding Principle 1: Promote academic excellence, interdisciplinary inquiry, and vital intellectual communities

Cohesive “precincts” for the Natural Sciences, Social Sciences, Engineering and Applied Sciences, and Arts and Humanities will have distinct physical characters.

Cafes and other informal spaces will create dynamic communities for living and learning.

New Research Loft and Arts Loft buildings will provide flexible space for interdisciplinary work.

Guiding Principle 2: Promote three distinct but seamlessly interconnected campuses to promote interaction.

UB Stampede will be transitioned to a Bus Rapid Transit system that will provide faster, more comfortable and reliable service.

Reconfigured roadways will reserve pathways for future streetcar or light rail connections to downtown and South Campus, civilize Audubon Parkway, and pedestrianize the character of Putnam Way.

Guiding Principle 3: Be responsible to the larger community by shaping – and being shaped by – broader plans and policies.

Extended bike and pedestrian paths will enhance public recreation and provide safer commuter access from all directions.

Retention ponds will reduce the volume and improve the quality of stormwater entering the regional watershed.

Guiding Principle 4: Provide long-term capital planning and promote prudent stewardship of university resources.

Former professional school buildings will be renovated with reconfigurable academic spaces for more efficient scheduling.

Naturalization of the campus “outer ring” will decrease landscape maintenance needs.

Arboreal “snow traps” and reduced paved areas will cut snow management costs.

Guiding Principle 5: Establish UB as a leader in environmental stewardship and sustainable design.

Structured parking, stormwater biofiltration, and strategies to reduce single occupancy vehicle use will reduce polluted runoff from surface parking.

North Campus will become a “living laboratory” to educate students and the community about innovative strategies for environmental stewardship.

Guiding Principle 6: Use the excellent design of campus architecture, landscape architecture and interiors to create great and memorable places contributing to a high quality of campus life.

A dramatic new open space on Lake LaSalle will mark the intersection of the existing academic core and the new connection to the Ellicott Complex.

Flint, Coventry, Hamilton and Rensch loops will become ceremonial gateways to the campus flanked by expressive new buildings.

New architecture throughout the campus will meet or exceed the contemporary and thoughtful designs of the new School of Engineering and Applied Sciences and new South Ellicott Housing Complex.
