University of Central Arkansas Master Planning

In 1998, Allison and Van Yahres Associates collaborated to produce a comprehensive master plan for the University of Central Arkansas located in Conway, Arkansas. Allison Architects developed an architectural code for all new construction as well as renovations. After developing the Master Plan in 1998, Allison Architects and Van Yahres were hired to take on a new challenge to plan for the phenomenal influx of students between 1998 to 2005 and on into the future. Specifically, UCA urgently needed a plan for the current 12,000 students (FTE) and eventually 15,000 (FTE). Questions about land acquisition had to be answered quickly and a direction established for the physical growth of the campus.
