Stanford University Facilities Project Management. Cody Anderson Wasney Architects. The addition of the Campus Center required historic renovation, seismic retrofit and a new addition to mark this important intersection of the campus. Specimen elm, cedar, cypress and Japanese black pine provided the overall setting and the design worked to preserve these important trees, to mark the new entries to the Union and Old Bookstore complex, to relate to the surrounding buildings and the clock tower, to facilitate pedestrian and bicycle flow and to re-engage the complex to the historic axis of the immediate surroundings. In addition, new courtyard areas were added to the northwest and southeast sides.
