Hmmm...I've heard a bit about it but haven't heard it's become that big of a deal.  What have you heard about it Matt?

I thought I remembered hearing about how the restaurant had a pretty good chef from Europe or New York, and that it served Parisian cuisine.

Interesting, I don't think I've heard that.

While I had a digital camera on loan I thought I'd add a few shots of the Northwest Arkansas Community College. NWACC could well one day be another full University in NWA and has plenty of room to grow in it's location at I-540/Hwy 102.

Nice shots. That student center looks amazing. I really like how they used that glass. I can't see NWACC ever becoming a U of A. U of A has well over 300 acres of buildings not to mention Dorms, Sporting Venues, Agricultural Testing Center, etc. NWACC has only about 100 acres for expansion.  NWACC will continue to become a regional college in the future, specializing in fields such as Nursing, Business Administration, etc. The current plan for NWACC is to add a few more 5 floor classrooms, two more parking garages, an amphiteatre, and an outdoor conservatory within the next 20 years.

Hey thanks for posting the pics.

Here's some aerial renders of NWACC's Master Plan:

It looks like the Barnes and Noble at NWACC has officially opened. From what I've been told, the store is like a mini Barnes and Noble with most books on the shelf that you would see in the Rogers one, plus school books, but no coffee bar.
