[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The CC site map looks like it scoops up a very dense area in terms of future students, which is good. Just doesn't seem to leave Wakefield in a good place.

But why can't they build new facilities at the other schools? Doesn't need to be a trailer - just build a new wing. CC needs renovation, no question, but the phasing in and work seems like it will take a long time and cost a lot of money. This better be something amazing and not a monument to municipal stupidity.

Other than willingness, what is unique about CC site? Do we have a forgotten facility with historical relevance? I do like the spacing between all the schools if one is built there. [/quote]

A wing?  Have you been to Yorktown?  Where would one put such wings?  At W&L it would go where the Ed Center is. But now our moronic SB wants to change that. [/quote]

Yorktown is not an attractive school, and adding another wing (assuming space could be found on such a small site) would make it look even more random.

W-L has a nice building but it feels overcrowded and cramped.

Wakefield is the only one of the three current facilities that looks well planned and appropriate to the number of students now at the school. [/quote]

I don't deny those facts. All three still have way more space than the proposed school at the CC. Before people start talking about making it equal, I think it makes more sense to expand there. I think that doing that would be more equal that trying to shoehorn all those things on to such a small site. [/quote]
