SUl3JIJCT Repoxt of the Week 27-31 July 70
1. Requirements for NPIC and RTRO Facility -
Some work on writing a draft of outline building specifications continued
but in the main the project was put in abeyance to develop three land use
plans for a portion of the property now assigned to the Bureau of Public Roads.
2. Pxoposed Plans for Use of BPR Land:
a. Three schemes identified as I, II, III were drawn on our base topo
maps and mounted on illustration boards for briefing purposes.
b. Scheme I re~ui.res acquisition of approximately 51 acres including
the parcel A land (West parking lot, 19.75 acres tinder use permit) inside
the loop road, leaving alproximately 310 acres of BPR land for. other than
Agency use. However, the Agency would wish to continue the permission
to use the area of the ball fields (about ~8 acres) until it was needed as a
building site. Total gross building area proposed is 1, 746, 000 sq. ft. plus
parking for 3, 450 cars in 3 parking structures; of this total, 918, 000 sq, ft.
and parking for 1700 cars would be constructed on the newly acquired prop-
erty.
c. Scheme II envisions acquisition of approximately 111 acres leaving
250 acres of BPR land for use as a park. Again, the parcel B ball fields
are not included in tl~e 111 acres, but parcel A -West Lot is included. T'he
new boundary would fall about 200 feet west of the existing BPR access road
from Route 193 and continue in a convex curve to the Agency gate at the park-
way. A fourth entrance for rush hour use could be effected through the pro-
posed park to the Turkey Run Road and onto the GW Parkway.

Total gross building area proposed is 1, 75$, 000 sq. ft. plus parking
for cars in parking structures, surface lots). Of the
total new gross building area 1, I43, 000 sq. ft. plus the surface parking
would be built on the ~~ewly acquired property. Such a scheme would leave
the existing open feeling of I-icls complex intact.

d. Scheme III proposes the same design of access roads and building
groups with the addition of about 99 acres of open land to the west as a
security buffer. This total acquisition of about 210 acres (including the
ball fields) would leave 15.1 acres of hill and ravine land as an extension of
Turkey Run Par. k.
The belt of open land would control the hilltops overlooking Agency
facilities well satisfying? security needs and simultaneously. extend the park
both visually and ecologically to that area devoted to park in Scheme II.
The inclusion of an improved heliport pad in the belt will not deny the above.
3. Training -Computer Aids to Architectural Design:
Friday and Saturday attendance a.t a seminar in Chicago illuminated a
large array of computer programs that can speed up and enlarge the scope
architectural work in preliminary design stages. ~There?are now programs
available to assist in space allocation and schematic design problems in
addition to programs to assist in the engineering aspects.
However, these programs are not inexpensive and careful thought must
be levied to determine their economic viability at this time. I believe that
within 2 to 5 years, they will be more commonly used. Being prepared to
use them well in the future requires "getting your feet wet" before the time
of need.
The two-day session was a combination of ill.ustratecl lectures and student
experience using a simplified program to allocate space via "bubble diagram-
ming" generated from proximity relationships stated in a matrix. We plotted
the diagrams by two methods: (.1) punch card data and flat-bed plotter, (2)
on-line teletype (Real Tune) output device.
