Emory University has donated land at the Dowman entrance for the construction of the new roundabout. Emory will reconfigure the Dowman Drive entrance to support the changes needed to make the roundabout work efficiently. In November, Emory announced plans to relocate and consolidate several of its campus bookstores to one new central facility on North Oxford Road, on what is currently the B. Jones parking lot. In addition to the bookstore, which will have its main entrance on North Oxford Road, the new building will include expanded space for Emory's Office of Admissions and a new Emory Career Center. There will also be a new parking deck, which will be largely encapsulated from view by the new building. The roof of the parking deck is envisioned as a half-acre, green plaza, with trees, grass and will be open to the public. The new parking will be a welcome addition for patrons of Emory Village. After Emory's business hours, the University is offering to open the parking lot for free to visitors and Emory Village shoppers. Construction is expected to begin in summer 2008, with completion in late 2009.
