The area's few major construc- tion projects will provide more high-rise structures for the soggy- soiled Huron River bank town. One block from the original 40 eacres of the University, now Cen- tral Campus, the University is con- structing a six-story administra- tion building, and a Flint develop- er is preparing a hulking 26-story residential hotel, designated as not for student occupancy. While high-rises aren't prolif- erating in Ann Arbor, they are not being discouraged. But planners in both the municipal and Uni- versity administration have in- creasingly been aware in the last several years that towering struc- tures imply -new traffic patterns and parking facilities in a town which was not constructed with high-rises in mind. The 26-story building will be down Maynard St. from the ten- story Maynard House and the Ad- I 1811 ministration Building. A block away is the new high-rise Institute for Social Research. Forseeably, a row of high-rise buildings will mark Maynard and Thompson. Although architectural plans for many University buildings have been delayed by a tightening of legislative capital outlay appro- down through the. yea. the traditional facult and student bank ARCHITECTURAL PLAN FOR THE NEW RESIDENTIAL COLLEGE priations in the last several years, sites have been named for most proposed buildings. Coming Attractions On Central Campus: 0 A four-story Modern Lan- guage Building consisting of class- rooms for undergraduates and of- fices for faculty will be built on what is now a parking lot behind Hill Auditorium. The site is bounded by Ingalls, Thayer, and Washington streets. * A Psychology Building is planned for a site behind the cur- rently-constructed Dental School, near Fletcher. n A site for the proposed Chem- istry Building could favorably be the one now occupied by Water- man Gymnasium. However, de- molition of the gym would create a need for a similar structure, which is not in planning. * A new structure for the School of Public Health will be built on Washington Heights near Observatory, facing the current public health structure. * The proposed University The- atre is planned for construction on Felch Park on Huron, near the Rackham Building. * The ten-story Graduate Li- brary will be built behind the Gen- eral Library on a site occupied until last year by West Physics. On North Campus: * The College of Architecture and Design will get new quarters on a site on Huron Parkway be- hind the cyclotron building. * A four-story Highway Safety Research Building has been plan- ned for a site north of the archi- tecture school on Huron Parkway. * Engineering Building I and related structures will be con- structed on a central plain behind North Campus Commons. * A Library Services Building has been. planned on an undesig- nated site. The Medical Center continues to develop in A cluster between North and Central Campuses. Pro- jects slated for the Medical Center include a second Medical Sciences Building, a 500-bed Hospital, an Adult Psychiatric Hospital, and a Clinical Care and Teaching Facility. Several structures, like the Up- john Center for Clinical Pharma- cology in the Medical Center, will be built through contributions to the $55 M Fund. Disneylands in the Centrat, Medical, and Nortn Campuses will not evolve out of tha University's construction plans. Those plans are neither sweeping nor well-de- fined. In short, the facade of the luture will be litt' different from that of the present. Much of the University's con- struction will occur in existing structures. The General Library, the University Hospital, and other long-used structures have been slated for rennovation. The Uni- versity has planned nearly $28 million in rennovation before 1972. 1 11 ,&o'M CA!UEA SlO? Whatever Your Photographic Needs May Be...
