Abstract
Carrollton Place is a 187,770 square foot elderly housing project located in a highly populated area of Indianapolis, Indiana. The project is designed to provide care for 228 people that are physically unable to carry on a totally independent life but still desire to remain integrated in a neighborhood. Integrating the facility into the existing fabric was the main object of the thesis.The book is arranged so that an overall glance reveals the basics of the design criteria before an indepth look is given to how the design progressed. Copies of the final thesis drawings then appear followed by and attempt to draw some conclusions. The appendix includes detailed information concerning the program, site analysis and building type study.
