This model shows the proposed three-sided arts complex on the left and Forbes College on the right looking south down Alexander Street. The large pool with skylights in the center of the buildings is shown, while the green roofs are not in this model. The traffic circle leading to a reconfigured University Place is mirrored by the arced-corner lecture hall.

This view of the model looking east shows the different levels of the arts complex. New South (tallest building) and Whitman College are beyond it at left and Baker Rink is beyond it at right.

This neighborhood design schematic plan shows the arts complex in relation to the transit plaza to the south and the new Dinky station and Wawa convenience store proposed nearby.

Three arts buildings form a plaza at the upper level and an internal forum on the lower level. Each building contains spaces for performing and visual arts open to all. The natural grade of the site is used to promote public access and visibility of these spaces from University Place, Alexander Street and the transit plaza.

The buildings form a new plaza of public space. This connection to Princeton architecture then will be developed with visual interconnection from the passerby to the arts activity through transparency. The central concept of the arts plaza is a catalyst with visual connection that will yield a more open architecture.
