| dc.description.abstract | The Johnson Lane Axis was part of Ellis F. Lawrence’s plan for the campus as early as 1914. Intended to be a major east-west circulation route for students, the Axis was completed in the early fifties in conjunction with the Erb Memorial Union. The parallel pathway configuration across the Memorial Quad appeared in the early forties as part of a development plan by Fred Cuthbert. At the end of the Mid-Century Era the Axis traversed View east towards the Erb Memorial Union, a principal destination from the Axis.an open landscape dominated by sweeping lawns. Since then, many more trees have been located along the Axis, particularly its eastern portion. The configuration of the Axis has remained virtually unchanged since the end of the Mid-Century Era. Today, with 13th Avenue acting as the predominant east-west pedestrian circulation route on campus, Johnson Lane Axis is a relatively quiet walking area, especially in the section between the Memorial Quad and the EMU. | en_US |
