Surrounded
by high quality historic buildings, the revitalized Back Campus will become
a significant open space in the heart of the campus. It offers the potential
to provide high quality recreational playing fields, significant additions
and improvements to the landscape of deciduous trees and contemplative
spaces on campus, and four commemorative walks and associated gardens.

The eastern edge
of the space and the Soldiers' Tower passage are proposed to be linked
to a new central walkway leading to Hart House Green and the Front Campus.
The University Art Centre in University College will have an entrance
from the Back Campus in the form of a sculpture court behind the Memorial
Wall
The Back Campus
design is a focal point of open space revitalization in the centre of
the University. A complete redefinition of the space is proposed to
achieve a landscape of landmark stature.
