The transformation of the North Campus Diag to the Eda U. Gerstacker Grove brings a new environment and vibrancy to North Campus. Its re-imagining aims to make North Campus a destination for the university community, creating a space for activity and interaction across disciplines. The new space includes a central plaza, sculptural pathways with integrated seating, elevated landforms with infiltration gardens and an abundance of new trees, theatrical LED lighting elements and a recreation space for group activities.

The renovation was made possible in part by a number of donors, including a lead gift from the Rollin M. Gerstacker Foundation as the college prepares for the University's Bicentennial in 2017.
