Fullerton College Facilities Master Plan

The Facilities Master Plan for Fullerton College in California seeks to revitalize the school’s institutional identity at the seams between campus and community, creating new gateway districts for student life and community participation. A campus bisected by a city street and characterized by service-access at its campus perimeter, is re-imagined as a new, more welcoming urban-facing campus, decidedly more student and community focused at its perimeter, with visible connections to its historic core.

A Welcome Center, Mobility Hub, and Performing Arts District are planned to anchor the new campus gateways along the campus’ southern perimeter. Critical student-serving programs for student government, student clubs, Veteran students, and other organizations redefine this edge and provide key elements of a vibrant co-curricular, urban college.

The Facilities Master Plan connects existing and proposed campus programs and spaces throughout its 83-acre campus with a new “Green Spine,” an enhanced north-south promenade extending from one of the new gateways into the campus core. The plan also creates an improved wayfinding network, with safer and more accessible spaces for students, faculty, staff, and members of the community to engage with one another outdoors.
