Tulane University Master Plan

Strategy for connecting multiple campuses with new identities, green infrastructure, and redevelopment.

Waggonner & Ball collaborated with Sasaki Associatesto create a visionary master plan for Tulane’s six differentcampus sites in Orleans and Jefferson parishes, two ofwhich are undeveloped. This comprehensive plan aims tointelligently redevelop underused parts of the campusesthat have limited space, aging infrastructure, andrelatively valuable real estate.

Primary goals of the master plan are to support Tulane’s mission to build community, enhance a sense of place, facilitate connectivity, integrate efficiency, and engage New Orleans. The design team established four main values to guide planning needs: people, landscape, mobility, and space. Plans for future expansion show alternatives for each campus and consider the character and opportunities of adjacent neighborhoods and communities, including sustainable design of stormwater management and green infrastructure.
