This alternative proposed reusing the existing structures and new construction on previously disturbed portions of the site. Previously disturbed portions of the site include those areas to the north and northwest of the main ranch house up to Walking Box Ranch Road. This alternative would have created an academic zone through the reuse of the bunkhouse and the construction of a new academic facility on the former tennis court site. The other historic buildings would be used for a mix of public and academic uses. This alternative was abandoned because it would necessitate major new construction in the central historic core of the site which would have had resulted in unacceptable adverse impacts to the ranch house viewshed. Additionally, the area available for construction would not have been adequate to satisfy program needs.
