The project consisted in creating three research building north of University Drive, in the Naheeto Park, with landscaped recreational areas between each buildings. The project was later reduce to one research building located at the corner of Nelson Way and University Drive, on the far east end of the initial site. Oberlander's landscape design consisted in trees planting along the street, the parking lot and the driveway, and creating a recreational area for staff and students.
