Thanks for the pics. Been meaning to drive by for a first hand look. Is there a bioswale in the green space?

Well, not sure but I think so: in the space between the pine trees and Hebrard (where Corona Hall......or was that one Olivier????......used to be) is now a valley-like depression for drainage. Either that, or it left a hole when hell swallowed up the old 'eye-sore' buildings. ;-)
No problem. And here's one more: a picture of what the corner of Hebrard and Boucher used to look like, when the 'new' student union was just completed in 1957 to replace the 'old' one, Bittle Hall.
Also note that the street lights in the vintage photo are basically the same ones that have now replaced the modern ones that were put in during the 1960's.
We need to pass some sort of proclamation.
There shall be no pine trees anywhere on campus.
Man it looks like parking has always been scarce on campus going back over 60 years.
It would be the biggest eye sore if that building was not torn down.
Yep.....that one and the maintenance shed too. They both ruin the views of the two buildings that we've spent so much money on, the APC and the Tigue.
And looking at the new Cypress Lake Plaza makes me you more easily imagine how great a new green space the new Champions Plaza will be.
Here are some pics from June 30th, 2018 of the new construction where youth park, and the UL merchandise location used to be.
Hopefully there are plans to bulldoze the old car lot and old mcdonalds/goodwill store.
Plans are to move the UL merch store to the corner of Cajundome Blvd and Johnston st which is basically the corner of Blackham colisium. They already moved the trailer which it looks like they split into 5 sections. Hopefully they won't make that eye sore a permanent location.
