EAST CAMPUS - NEW PARADIGM With a lighter building program over the years on East, there exists little in the way of new models for architectural expression. In 1974, Edward Durrell Stone produced the distinctive Mary Duke Biddle Music Building in Stone’s contemporary classical style. However, it remains “one of a kind” and did not set a new direction for the future. A small addition to Brodie Recreation Center in white stucco introduced a new expression although this is not extensive enough to set a direction. As a campus of multiple types of expression from its beginning, given the right location and use, there could be opportunities for a new paradigm on East in the future to enliven the campus. Recently, the Epworth Building has been identified for replacement and the opportunity may exist there. Biddle Music
