Amherst
College 2020 Amherst College
2020 is a vision for the third century of a 110 acre New England campus,
based on thorough site assessment and response to three goals: expression
of campus character; enhancement of pedestrian friendly spaces; and management
of vehicles. Main Quad proposals extend the pedestrian precinct, open
views toward Memorial Hill and rationalize parking. Campus Center area
proposals create a new quadrangle. Athletic field proposals delineate
transition zones with an overlook terrace, hillside orchard and tree plantings.
North west quadrant proposals enhance campus identity and image with entryway
realignment, Converse Hall frontage improvements and parking lot screening.
Implemented projects include: upper and lower campus linkage, new sitting
areas, Webster Circle reconstruction, Webster-Kirby expansion, athletic
facilities and Frost Library terrace. |
