One’s first impression may be of size and distance—broad valleys rimmed by mountain ranges, with a huge sky arching over all. However, a closer look reveals that, beneath the broad brush strokes, this is a land of astonishing variety. For example, it is comprised of several kinds of desert, year-round flowing streams, and sky island mountain ranges.

  • Descriptions of Important Historic Sites
    Appendix A DESCRIPTIONS OF IMPORTANT HISTORIC SITES This list of some of the most important historic sites or properties (buildings, structures, and districts), within the proposed Santa Cruz Valley National Heritage Area includes: (1) all National Historic Landmarks; (2) selected properties currently listed on the National and State Registers of Historic Places; (3) selected properties that are unlisted but are likely eligible for inclusion in the National and State Registers; and (4) selected properties with local significance. The properties in Pima County were identified in 2002 as Priority Historic Sites for the cultural resources element of the Sonoran Desert Conservation Plan (Pima County 2002). The properties in Santa Cruz County were identified in a 2004 inventory conducted for this Feasibility Study by the University of Arizona Preservation Studies Program. This combined list does not include every property currently listed on the National and State Registers. It is a small sample of the historic properties with national, state, and local significance in this region, and it can be expanded in the future. 10 COTTAGES ON SHORT STREET, NRHP Short Street Nogales (Early 1900s) These 10 concrete cottages were built as modest worker’s housing early in the twentieth century. They are significant to the Nogales area because they are the only examples of cast-in-place concrete construction in the residential sector. They are uniquely situated on a hillside, with a central stairway access servicing the units. The cottages feature exposed rafters and corrugated steel sheathed gabled roofs.

The restoration of the building was undertaken with an important philosophy: the UA’s first building should be returned to its roots as the heart of campus. Designed in a style often referred to as “territorial hybrid,” the extensive renovation preserved the building’s historic features while re-establishing it as a central, open and communal space for students, employees, alumni and friends of the university. Now housed within Old Main are offices responsible for supporting prospective students, freshmen and transfer students, and employees responsible for campus tours.

  • September 19, 2008 Dear UA Alumni Cheerleader And/Or Mascot, Cheers
    September 19, 2008 Dear UA Alumni Cheerleader and/or Mascot, Cheers! It’s that time of year again! Homecoming 2008 is just around the corner! The UA Cheerleaders & Mascots would like to extend an invitation to all alumni cheerleaders and mascots to attend this year’s Homecoming festivities. Homecoming weekend is scheduled for October 24-25, 2008. This year, the Arizona Football team will take on the Trojans from USC, on Saturday, October 25th at 7:15 PM (MST/PST). We hope you will return to campus and reminisce with old friends, as well as make new friends and meet this year’s spirit groups. We are extremely excited to have the current team meet the alumni and showcase their material thus far. The cheerleaders and mascots continue to focus on promoting Wildcat spirit through crowd interactive material. This year’s program is comprised of 14 male bases, 12 female flyers, and of course, Wilbur & Wilma T. Wildcat! Our Spirit Cats come from all over the country, including Utah, Washington, Texas, California, Illinois, and of course Arizona! This past August, we decided to bring back an old tradition to our Training Camp. The Cheerleaders & Mascots traveled to Mt. Lemmon for an overnight retreat. The retreat included hiking, cooking meals, team building activities, and of course Captain and Board selection. It was quite a success and a nice break from practice two times per day for two weeks! This summer, the Cheerleaders & Mascots took a hiatus from UCA College Spirit Camp in Santa Barbara, CA. Instead, we brought three UCA college instructors to Tucson for a Private Stunt Camp.

Strategic Alignment with the University’s Institutional Priorities • Wonder makes us PERSEVERE. • Since 1885, the University of Arizona has always planned for tomorrow, while solving today’s challenges. Wildcats dream, play, and obsess about a better everything, for everyone, so that our shared future is bright. • The significant impacts of the global COVID-19 pandemic have only strengthened our resolve, our determination to solve the most complex challenges, and our commitment to strong relationships and collaborations. We are defined by our people and we know we are better together. We do more when we work across backgrounds, skills, and perspectives. We converge on what matters most for our students, for our community, and for our world. • The priorities of our Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) remain focused on shaping the future, improving productivity, inspiring learning, and urging exploration. We plan and build with a purpose for both growth and renewal. We plan a campus that connects people, places, and community. We prioritize safe, dynamic, and inclusive spaces that inspire living, learning, growing, and dreaming. • This CIP directly reflects UArizona priorities. Our first-year plan has no proposed projects while we focus on completing our existing high-priority projects and mitigating the significant safety and financial impacts of the pandemic. Our two-year capital plan forecast remains committed to our core values and strategic objectives of productive investment in existing assets while planning and building to best facilitate the success of our students.

    Physical Space Inventory Fall 2018 Planning, Design & Construction Space Planning & Management Cover page photo credit: University of Arizona – BSRL Building PDC Project Photo Gallery: http://www.pdc.arizona.edu/project/12-9134 _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Contact information for the University of Arizona: Web Site: http://www.arizona.edu _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Planning, Design & Construction Space Planning & Management 220 W 6th St. USA Building, 3rd Floor Tucson, Arizona 85701-1014 http://www.pdc.arizona.edu OVERVIEW The University of Arizona’s Physical Space Inventory experienced an active year in 2018, highlighted by the completion of three construction projects. The new Bioscience Research Laboratories building added 97,216 NASF (172,623 GSF) of research laboratory and office space to the portfolio. The building comprises of five floors with facilities that support interdisciplinary and health sciences research. The completion of the South Stadium Parking Structure (146,940 NASF / 317,594 GSF) provided 915 new parking spaces in an area of campus that was high in need. The construction project involved the redesign of the 6th St. & Warren Ave. intersection, improving traffic flow throughout the area and increasing efficiency and safety. With the help of a generous gift by one of its most famous alumni, the Terry Francona Hitting Facility (9,196 NASF / 9,458 GSF) was completed in 2018 and provides the Arizona Baseball program with a state of the art, indoor hitting facility. The facility is located at Hi Corbett Field, home of Arizona Baseball. The Corleone Center, Corleone Apartments, and Drachman Apartments were demolished in 2018. The area will now be part of a new Honors College Village, a Public-Private Partnership project that is scheduled to be completed in 2019.
