Both the original and current plans call for situating the complex for Cyclone softball, soccer and track and field in the green space east of Wallace and Wilson residence halls. Facilities on the new site will include a track, soccer field, softball stadium and locker rooms.
The latest plan moves those facilities farther south on the green space, putting more distance between the complex and the Storm Street neighborhood to the north. In comparison to the original plan, it also preserves more open space for use by ISU students and local residents.
In a recent meeting with neighborhood representatives, ISU officials said the new plan addresses some of the neighbors' concerns about proper management of storm water, directing site traffic in a way that is less intrusive to neighborhoods and preserving green space.
