A good fan here on the board shared this information with me tonight. It's pretty exciting and so I wanted to share it with everyone. This is available in the public domain so I am not revealing any secrets here and many thanks go out to the person who was able to locate it. If you have Adobe Acrobat (.PDF) you can get to the presentation slides directly from this link right here: http://untsystem.edu/untmasterplan/documents/WEB-UNT_MP_2ndCommunity-Workshop%5B1%5D.pdf If you don't have PDF capability go to the following address: http://untsystem.edu/ NEXT - After bringing up the above website, select Campus Master Plans on the left hand side then hit MASTER PLAN WEBSITE under the University of North Texas which is at the top towards the middle of the page. When the next page comes up, hit Presentations on the left hand side. These presentations that show up towards the middle of the page will give you the latest plans for maps concerning the UNT Campus in Denton. Select the presentation titled Community Forum (February 6, 2013). What you will find are a couple of before and after maps showing proposed facility enhancements for the entire UNT Denton campus. Of particular interest is PAGE 34 which highlights the Eagle Village side of 35E. The new conference center and hotel is there, as well as a unique bowling and upper deck addition to the student side of Apogee; the new baseball stadium (which is positioned similar to the softball field); what appear to be two new baseball and softball buildings/locker rooms; a new dorm; more parking; a new main stage for the Waranch tennis facility; what appears to be a new track facility; and last but not least a new large building that appears to be about half the size of a football field on the lower left hand section of the page. My best guess is that this could be a new football practice facility. Also of note, there appears to be a demolition of Fouts which will provide additional parking and green space. I found it interesting how they illustrated Apogee being expanded and how the bowled it yet kept the wing structure in place. Baseball and the hotel/conference center appear to be of the highest priority. Also note that they are planning a transit mall on Highland street. It's hard not to get excited about the future when you read through these ambitious plans that are in place and appear to be schedule for final approval at the May Board of Regents meeting. GMG!
