In Fall of 2013, a third-year graduate architecture studio class undertook a preliminary look re-planning the Mission Valley area. Their work prompted the Planning Director to request that students continue to look at ideas for the future of Mission Valley. During the Spring quarter of 2014, the AR 403 studio in collaboration with Skyport Studio, developed a “Vision” for the Valley and its implementation.
