BC plans stress unifying campus, improving traffic - Allston/Brighton TAB

More tentative details of the Boston College master plan for development in Brighton are trickling out in advance of the approaching Institutional Master Plan filing, causing debate among residents over what is the best and most appropriate way for the university to grow to the satisfaction of both BC and the neighboring community.

Over the next 10 years, the university hopes to add several structures to the expansive Brighton properties, including a new undergraduate housing structure, a conference facility next to the former cardinal’s residence, a 250-car partially underground parking structure, and new athletic facilities, including a baseball diamond with up to 2,000 seats.
