On Wednesday, April 11 at 7 pm we'll learn about sustainable architecture during a free tour and talk at the gleaming new UTA College Park Center, 601 S. Pecan St.
For this month's general meeting we will tour the CPC, UTA's newest environmentally-friendly sports arena/events facility. We will be guided by the building's architects and managers, who will highlight its green features.
Representatives of the UT System and the architecture and engineering firms involved Bill Amendola, Office of Facilities Planning and Construction, UT System; Ellen Mitchell, sustainable design coordinator, HKS; Jennifer Blount, LEED coordinator, Jacobs Engineering; and Keith Schobert, assistant director, UTA College Park Center will lead a discussion of green building elements, both visible and stealth, and other environmentally aware features of the state-of-the-art venue and how the entire 20-acre College Park District is accelerating a growing synergy between the university and downtown Arlington.
Enter through the north-facing front doors, and we'll meet in the lobby. The tour will begin promptly at 7 from the lobby. Park in the multistory garage on Center or in nearby student lots.
