PEORIA, ILLINOIS
Bradley University represents a significant moment in the city of Peoria acting as an incubator for learning, and serving as a key link to downtown Peoria via Main Street. The proposed plan for the campus will increase the legibility and image of the University in two ways. The first is through strategic removal of parking that will re-establish a sequence of pedestrian friendly spaces within the existing campus framework and strengthen the existing east-west axis along St. James Street. The second is the addition of the alumni quad to serve as a western anchor in the campus by providing an area of confluence for students, alumni, and faculty. This is carried out with the implementation of a new topographic frame that reasserts a spatial order in an area of the campus that has grown organically over time.
