Master Plan as referenced above: http://boardoftrustees.uconn.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/194/2015/02/Attachment-15.pdf Go to page 26. List both floated locations.

On page 12, looked at the picture for campus construction by 2035 (just took a long sip from my Cap & Cole when I realized how old I will be by then) and a few notes:

1) I do not see a rink anywhere on campus
2) The Gampel Expansion is there; but, the footprint for the Wolff-Zackin Natatorium (pool) is gone. UConn building a new pool or axing the swim team?
3) Both S and X parking lots are gone, no surprise with parking garages going into each location plus one underthe trac k and another in Mansfield Apartments; but, I bet Mansfield will not like the idea of a 1,200 car parking garage and associated traffic to it right next to EO Smith High School in S lot
4) Still surprised that they are not going to swap the soccer game and practice facilities with the football practice fields to allow the football team to have 'on-site' access
5) Maybe this time old West Campus dorms and the abandoned Frat row will be replace
6) In a 100 years, which complex will be rebuilt more times, Grant MSG, the Student Union, or Babridge library?
7) Student rec maybe expanded on site or moved up behind McMahon?

There seems to be a disconnect between pg 12 and pgs 26 and 27 which leads me to believe pages 26 and 27 are newer slides. On page 26 there is clearly references to 2 "potential hockey arena sites". Additionaly page 12 doesn't show the two proposed locations for the Student Rec Center that pages 16 and 26 do. Page 12 also doesn't show the new soccer stadium expansion which page 26 does. Maybe because the funding is still TBD?

Potential rink sites are clearly shown on page 28. Mansfield Apartments and Frietas Rink parking lot.
