[QUOTE="Deep Purple, post: 2775973, member: 17"] Back in 1998-1999 when Mick Ferrari was Chancellor and TCU was buying up properties to the east from Lubbock Ave to McCart, the University Park and University West neighborhood associations were concerned that the university would begin expanding its campus north into their neighborhoods. University officials met with neighborhood association reps and assured them that TCU had no plans to expand north of W Cantey St. Lot 4 is north of Cantey, but TCU ownership of that property predates the Cantey assurance by a long time, so that indicates nothing. A bigger question is whether the current TCU administration would feel obligated to honor a 20-year-old assurance made by a previous administration. I strongly suspect they would. If TCU absolutely has to expand further, I think the odds are much greater that it will expand south of Berry St (but not Bellaire). In fact TCU has already acquired and renovated the old La Mancha Business Center (formerly West Berry Church of Christ, built in 1949-50) next to the CVS Pharmacy on the south side of Bellaire. Human Resources and parts of IT and Advancement Operations are housed in that building. TCU even won an award from Historic Fort Worth for preserving the architectural integrity of the building.
