The facility accommodates student use throughout the academic year, with an average daily participation level of 1,000 students, as well as collaborative community programs and access during summer months.
The team coordinated with the City and staff to design streetscape improvements, including landscaped and hardscaped entry nodes at either end of the pedestrian corridor and on street corners.
Designers developed a linear park along Intramural Way, and Mackenzie’s engineers coordinated with the City of Corvallis and university planning staff to design streetscape improvements.
A custom-designed shelter with an exposed heavy beam structure serves as a covered pavilion, restroom facility, and storage space.
