For those of you not aware, Hendrix has been planning to build an "Academic Village" on the land east of U.S. 65 across from the campus. This is basically a large residential and commercial development with a "New Urbanism" feel. For further information, check out this site (Click Hendrix 2015):

The Log Cabin article also mentions plans by Hendrix to make 65 (Harkrider) four lanes with a median, as well as create a roundabout at the intersection with Siebenmorgen.

Wow, that's a nice urban project in Conway!!

To bad it will take until 2015.

Very interesting plan. Even talk of a roundabout. I'm still wondering if roundabouts will ever catch on in Arkansas.

One in Fayetteville near the square or in Downtown would be perfect.

Very nice, that's my alma mater. I really like the mini-dorm apartment suites for upperclassmen they built since I graduated, those are really nice.

There's a mention in the Fayetteville Downtown Master Plan of having one on College and Lafayette but I haven't heard anymore on it ever happening.

Yeah it really does look like a nice project.
