The image below illustrates the current, 1992 plan. This expressed vision
of the campus of tomorrow
is a modified reproduction of a map intended for use as figure 4A in
"Carleton University land
use development plan", by the department of physical plant. This plan
can be compared with
the initial approved master plan from 1954 (pages 19 and 29), and
subsequent long-range schemes
by the Architectural Associates (pages 22 and 26).
Current plans call for somewhat greater on-campus student accommodation,
as was specified 30 to
38 years ago. Current proposed academic spaces also are somewhat greater
than were called for
30 to 38 years ago.

In contrast, current master planning schemes designate far
more space for indoor athletic facilities,
parking, and other non-academic support areas such as alumni & conference
facilities.
