Northwestern University unveils master plan for new facilities
Northwestern University in the US has unveiled the master plan for a major complex, designed by Populous, which will include athletic and recreational facilities as well as a new parking structure on the north end of its main Evanston campus.
The design plan of the building includes the construction of a large indoor multipurpose facility which will provide room for major events; indoor practice and a competition venue for intercollegiate sports; and space for recreation, club sports and intramurals.
The project also includes the construction of new facilities and renovation of the existing Dellora A. and Lester J. Norris Aquatics Center and Henry Crown Sports Pavilion to include new practice, training and competition venues for Northwestern’s varsity sports, a new diving well, new locker rooms and new space for aerobics, yoga and other group exercise classes.
Including increased parking at the north end of campus and improved key areas for the athletic programs, the plan also include the construction of state-of-the-art practice, training and competition facilities.
Upon completion, the new facility aims at providing a world-class, academic, social and athletic experience to the student athletes of the Northwestern University.
