I don't get the connection between research univerisites and lane-miles. Maybe Boston has them in their 14-billion dollar big dig project, I don't know.
However, OHSU is a research university - and a pretty well funded one, at that.
I was involved in an urban design class at PSU's urban planning program that involved the long-term planning director of PSU, as well as one of the city of Portland's top urban planners. Unfortunately, I cannot remember their names - however, one important thing that was said is that within the next 20 years, PSU and OHSU will definitely become unified into one institution.
Personally, I would hate for it to happen right now, as I'm sure the architecture program in which I am enrolled in would probably get axed, but it's desperately needed, both financially and practically speaking. I can't believe how close the two schools are, either.
