Establish a Unifying Framework for the Campus as a Whole
Land Use
The land area addressed in the plan includes nearly 1,400 acres of the Iowa City Campus extending from the East Campus to the Hawkeye Campus, west of Mormon Trek Boulevard, and the 330 acres of the Oakdale Campus in Coralville.
Currently, the University of Iowa has a concentration of undergraduate academic space on the East Campus, consolidated organization of athletic venues in the West Campus, concentration of Arts facilities on the west side of the Iowa River, and cohesiveness of the Health Sciences Colleges and their adjacency to UIHC. This framework is one in which people orient themselves and understand the environment. New building and land uses should be organized to optimize functional relationships with related uses and be compatible with existing surrounding uses.
