What is the University planning on doing with the Bryce property? Big coup to get that land, but don't know what the plans are future. TIA

They will keep the main building (historical), make it offices probably, then tear down the rest and put more facilities I guess.

In speaking with a friend that works for UA, it seems they want to build a new Aquatic Center. Maybe there? Though he said that would be a good deal in the future as far as he knew.

The main, historical building will remain. It will be restored and updated. The remainder of the grounds will be used for new dorms, as well as future expansions of the science and engineering complex (there are two more phases planned). The other end of the property will see new athletic facilities. Swimming/diving, track and field, and possibly baseball will see new facilities there.

The main building to Bryce Hospital.

Dorms would be on the western edge of the property. New athletic facilities would be on the northern and eastern edge of the property.

The real question is how many of you have broken into Old Bryce at 2am?
