After the firm, Ford, Powell Carson & Associates, was contracted by UT System regents in late 1970 to design the physical form of the new UTSA, architect O’Neil Ford took to a legal pad and began this sketch of his vision of what the campus could be. This drawing, part of the Ford Collection housed at The University of Texas at Austin, is remarkably close to what came to life. (Special thanks to the Ford family for granting permission for publication.)
