Description
Summary:[...]some urban campuses exist as neighborhoods unto themselves or as part of campus districts that are more removed from the residential and commercial centers of neighboring communities. [...]urban campuses today are cognizant of their role as stewards of city land and neighborhood space. [...]this constraint can also provide opportunities. Because of the sizable commercial real estate markets in those cities, urban campuses often have more options for leasing space than they would if they were located in smaller markets. [...]this strategy can create adjacencies to other partner organizations that may provide benefits to these backof-house functions that they might not otherwise enjoy if they were embedded within academic space.
