Bryan Air Force Base is a former United States Air Force base located just west of Bryan, Texas. Today, the location houses the Texas A&M University Riverside Campus.
In 2006, the Texas A&M College of Architecture completed an 8,000-square-foot (700 m2) Built Environment Teaching and Research Facility also known as Architecture Ranch.[1] Architecture Ranch is located on 12 acres (4.9 ha) of the Texas A&M Riverside Campus.[2]
A joint Texas A&M System- University of Texas system high density library will begin construction in June 2012. The facility is designed to hold one million books and eliminate redundancy in the collections of the two university systems.[3]
