I actually am quite hopeful about this development.
Ik it is going at a snail's pace, but judging from their plans, I think they have a really good shot at doing this well.
I am sure most of you have skimmed over the campus masterplan, but it has some really interesting conceptual plans.

the concept plans are on pages: 54-61 in the PDF. Page 73 has a building height diagram.
They go into a lot of detail on the planning as well.
They are definitely trying to avoid suburban-style, at least in the south woods portion (smart park still looks like crap lol). I also read that the new parking guidelines will seek to hide or remove any surface parking going forward.
