ZachTheZip Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 Behind Buchtel Hall... That means tearing down Carrol Hall, which was rumored for a little while. I'm all for it. UA's central campus area is too one-directional. They need to sprawl out to the north and south a bit more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zipsbandman Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 It's about time they start knocking down those eyesores on campus. It's nice that they have all these new buildings but it's great that they will start doing away with the ugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZippyRulz Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 They've been talking about it for a long time now but those buildings are still there. I agree they are ugly but enrollment is increasing and I don't think they can afford to lose the classrooms. I don't know how they could build this new 4 acre green space behind Buchtel with Carroll Hall still there though. It may just have to wait at least until the academic space in the new stadium is ready. They also put that amphitheater in behind the arts & sciences building but I guess you can never have enough of them (?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
