South Dakota State University is exploring how it could develop the northwest part of its campus.

Some of the ideas include a graduate apartment complex, retail space, a hotel and conference center and an active adult community with private residences and assisted living facilities. Other proposals in the feasibility study include a relocated and expanded Agricultural Heritage Museum, redevelopment of the university's historic equine stable and comprehensive landscaping.

The project site is bordered by 11th Street on the south, Medary Avenue on the east, the U.S. Highway 14 bypass to the north and a line from the bypass to SDSU's Berg/Bailey apartment complex. The plan aims to create a new campus gateway from the U.S. Highway 14 Bypass.
