The redesign of 13th Ave. and University St. is a legacy of the commemoration of UO's 125th Anniversary. Sales of bricks and paving blocks bearing donors' names are part of the design initiative. Improvements include the replacement of the existing bus shelter, the installation of traffic roundabouts, and the creation of pedestrian friendly spaces.
