It would bring a large new academic structure to the west side Broad, which is dominated by athletic and recreational uses on Temple’s campus. The new building is slated to rise on the site that was once proposed to host an on-campus football stadium for the Temple Owls. “One of the big focuses of the project has to be on maximizing its positive impact on the public spaces that surround the building,” said Colin Koop, design partner at Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, an international architecture firm.
The city’s advisory Civic Design Review committee embraced the project. Planning Commission staff were also complimentary.
