CAMPUS MASTER PLAN UPATEFocus Group – P r e s e r vat i on a n d A d a p t iv e Re u s e
27 April 2016
What we heard Campus Framework and Open Space Network Preservation Approach Heritage Buildings and Spaces (Defining the List) Demolition Adaptive Reuse Challenges and Benchmarking Discussion and Next Steps
AGENDA
WHAT WE HEARD
Pedestrian Conflict Areas• Bizzell Street
• Academic / Engineering Area (Ross Mall, Ireland St., etc.)
• University Drive Crossings
White Creek• Erosion Issues
West Campus Remoteness• Connection from White Creek Housing to East Campus
• Connection from West Campus to East Campus
• West Campus feels remote due to lower population and
density
Memorial Student Center• Works well on multiple levels – Design Standards,
Signage, Branding, Green/Open Space, etc.
Traffic Congestion Points• Reed Arena/Parking Lots (100)
• Bizzell Street (Parking Lots 54)
Green Space• JK Williams Admin Building East Lawn (formal)
• All Quads (Cushing, Academic, Architecture)
• West Campus Green Space is underutilized
• Spence Park has great potential
• Simpson Drill Field – multifunctional open space
Build-to-Line• Identify (and Enforce?) – Is it still applicable?
Campus Policies and Process• Campus Policies and Process should align with the CMP
• Update in order to implement the plan accordingly
Campus Branding• Multiple opportunities to enhance TAMU branding
• Arrival points, institutional identity and campus traditions
need to be leveraged.
Off-Campus Development• Will lead to new access points and the need for improved
systems to support TAMU users of these developments
What We Heard: Collectivelisten:
Bush Library area and White Creek present an opportunity for future legacy buildings and are culturally significant.
What We Heard: Preservation & Adaptive Reuselisten:
The Academic Building, over 100 years old, is an iconic building for the institution but it has not been taken care of - particularly on the inside.
What We Heard: Preservation & Adaptive Reuselisten:
Simpson Drill Field – program the green space.
What We Heard: Preservation & Adaptive Reuselisten:
Bizzell/Beutal Hall area are prime locations. Some of these buildings are contributing to campus, and some are not.
What We Heard: Preservation & Adaptive Reuselisten:
Memorial Student Center is a good example of maintaining character - feels like the same building, but has been completely refreshed.

PRESERVATION APPROACH
The Preservation Approachapproach:
1. Identify potential historic resources -buildings, interior spaces, open spaces, streets and walkways, site furniture and view corridors - that are have historic significance and are therefore worthy of preservation and likely to be determined eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. Identify opportunities for reconstruction or memorial projects.
2. Analyze the current campus process for preserving Heritage Buildings and ways in which other campus’ manage their heritage
resources using case studies.
3. Catalog the historic resources with respect to their level of significance or priority and gain stakeholder buy-in. • Description, date, architect, style,
condition, alterations and a statement of significance
• Utilize campus database or other means of easily communicating with other campus groups
• Define level of significance/priority level tied to standards for treatment
4. Create policies and guidelines that protect these resources.• Update extant guidelines• Create process organization chart • Include demolition and reconstruction

Historic Integrity requires at least 4 of 7 aspects:•Location• Design• Setting•Materials•Workmanship• Feeling• Association
Texas Historical Commission determines Eligibility to the National Register of Historic Places for every building over 50 years old.
NPS suggests that historic resource surveys include properties over 50 years old AND include an additional 5 years.
Following NPS standards for Determination of Eligibility takes into account, Age, Architectural and Cultural Significance, and Historic Integrity.

Develop Flow Chart for each type of project, from Routine Maintenance to Capital Projects to integrate heritage building guidelines into the process:
• Planning Campus-Wide • Programming to Determine Appropriate Fit• Final Program of Requirements• Selection of A/E• Selection of Contractor or CM• Facility Design Standards/Preservation
Guidelines• Design Review Committee• Construction Phase Standards• Maintenance• Record keeping
