CARLETON COLLEGE NEIGHBORHOOD IMPACT STUDY (NIS)
Welcome to the Carleton College Neighborhood Impact Study Group (NISG) Wiki! The purpose of this website is to exchange information and feedback about the transformation of the former Northfield Middle School into Carleton College’s new Arts Union.
Please use this forum to help guide us in the design and planning process. Anyone can access this site to view, edit pages, and upload comments. Simply CREATE A WIKI ACCOUNT and join our forum. The links in the sidebar at right will connect you to the latest design drawings and plans. We want to know what you think!
The SUMMARY OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD IMPACT STUDY, including a synopsis of neighbor commentary (as of March 27, 2009), can be downloaded here. Although the plans for the Carleton Arts Union are currently on hold, we encourage you to visit this site for updates. The Wiki will remain open, including a space for you to leave comments on our DISCUSSION PAGE. Thank you for your participation and interest in this project!
