General University Area Updates and Rumours
I looked around, but didn't see anything posted previously about a new building on UW's east campus for autonomous vehicles.

"That the Building & Properties Committee approve a $3.9 million project budget for the construction of the Autonomous Vehicle Research building to be located on the gravel parking lot on UW’s east campus."

"The University is proposing to construct a one-storey 7,100 square foot structure on the gravel parking lot on east campus so that the research activities can be relocated from Colby Drive into a fully functioning advanced research facility. The general property area is designated for a parking structure in the campus master plan and the building has been oriented so that the parking structure can be located immediately east of the building. A preliminary site plan is attached."

   

Kind of disappointing to put such a low density building right next to a transit terminal. Is that this first formal plans we've seen for a parking garage location at UW?
Everyone move to the back of the bus and we all get home faster.
