Density 1. Background: – Density contributes to a more vibrant and convenient campus environment. Integrating density within MCC’s campuses holds the potential to significantly elevate overall functionality, relevancy, liveliness, and sense of community. – By incorporating a diverse array of functions such as education, office, student housing, healthcare, fitness, and dining, density-focused projects cultivate a dynamic and community-driven campus atmosphere. The presence of a diverse range of activities, businesses, and people contributes to a bustling atmosphere. – The integration of businesses and services into campus environments spawns employment and experiential learning opportunities for students. – Walkability, convenient parking, and density are all necessary to create a comfortable environment. Onstreet parking and walkable pedestrian paths promote visible activation and connection of a site.
