The Ohio Union
The 2016 Annual Real Estate Conference of the Ohio State Center for Real Estate took place on April 27, 2016 at The Ohio Union. This invitation-only event brought together leaders from all domains of the real estate industry to engage in thought provoking conversations about the state and the future of the real estate industry.
Mr. Graham Wyatt
Partner, Robert A.M. Stern Architects
American colleges and universities have historically had an equivocal relationship with their surroundings, balancing the uniquely American concept of an academic campus as a place apart with the impulse to engage students in the life of an urban community. Today, with prospective students expressing a strong preference for colleges and universities in urban settings, institutions of higher learning have taken on strategic roles in the reconception of the cities in which they are embedded. Mr. Wyatt examined this trend and a variety of approaches universities have developed for investing in and contributing to the cultural, political, and commercial life of their host cities.
