Pedestrian Rhythms - existing
•“Warped grid” of north south and east west routes acts as basic circulation framework
• Pedestrian routes alternate natural and developed environments

Pedestrian Rhythms – Option D1
•3-4 story infill buildings
•New segments connect a more complete “Warped Grid”
•Retained landscapes (Gulches, Kerr meadow, Great Meadow, North Campus slopes) maintain the natural / developed rhythm
