Some of the major elements of the campus are: 230 buildings, containing almost 14,800,000 gross square feet of space; 556 acres; 5 miles of University-owned streets and 7 1/2 miles of City-owned streets within the campus boundaries; 33 miles of sidewalks and plazas; a University-owned electrical distribution system which annually provides over 225 megawatt hours of power to University buildings; and a University-owned Central Steam Plant with one natural gas and three coal fired boilers and a distribution system which annually produces over one half billion pounds of steam for heating purposes. The Steam Plant also operates a five (5) megawatt electrical power generator when it is economical to do so.
