Boise State University- Micron College of Business
Project Size: 3.3 acres
Client(s): Boise State University
Principal(s) in Charge: Jason Densmer; Doug Russell
Project Status: Completed
The Micron College of Business building is located on the western edge of the Boise State University Campus, along Capitol Boulevard and University Avenue, on a 3.3-acre site. The Land Group developed a site plan to complement the grandeur of the academic building. The pedestrian plaza along Capitol Boulevard, the courtyard on the northeast side of the building, and the paved pedestrian walkways surrounding the structure demonstrate the importance of public open space on a university campus. A landscape water feature, ornamental plantings, decorative paving, and seating enrich the campus environment while the green roof provides an engaging and functional storm water management solution. All vehicular traffic and parking was designed to minimize conflict between vehicles and pedestrians. To achieve the desired vehicular circulation, The Land Group worked closely with Ada County Highway District to vacate two adjacent streets and an on-site alley.
