And, LCC is one of the biggest offenders in the downtown area, too. They have maybe a handful of nice preservation projects they've done over the years, but relative to the size of their campus, they've been nothing put a bad influence on the urban fabric of that area of downtown. There is absolutely no reason for a "park-like" entrance to the campus, particularly when you consider the ridiculousness that the north end of the campus is a street and it's already basically walled off, and then literally across the street is Durant Park. It simply doesn't make any sense, too, given that the corner they want to demolish is on the other side of the street of the campus.
