dc.description.abstract | According to Ellis Lawrence’s 1936 plan of campus, the Promenade was intended to be a quadrangle between dormitories. Today it functions as an Axis in an area dominated by student residence halls. The most historic features along the Axis date back to the Lawrence Era, and include Straub Hall, a lone Ponderosa pine near Carson Hall, and a Big-leaf maple on the corner of Onyx and 14th. The trees are probably remnants of the residential neighborhood that stood here during the Inception and Lawrence/Cuthbert Eras. The curved concrete path and the small basketball courts in front of the Walton complex date back to the Mid-Century Era. Originally a section of 14th Avenue, the Promenade is now a pedestrian corridor that connects the EMU to Agate Street. | en_US |
