With over 1,700 acres of property, the traditional core of the University inhabited an approximately 160 acre area bound by the lake to the north and Notre Dame Avenue to the south. Parking, traffic congestion, pedestrian access, academic and athletic facilities expansion had all become major impediments to the sustained growth of the campus. The master plan identified core academic, housing and athletic precincts on campus and established growth corridors for future facilities, including the development of two new malls. As a part of this effort, the University Golf Course, situated at the southeast corner of the campus, was identified as a prime candidate for relocation to free-up valuable campus space for growth.  Satellite parking areas were developed to intercept traffic outside the campus core and traffic restrictions were imposed on-campus. Utilities master planning anticipates the addition of more than 1.5 million sq.ft. of campus facilities.
