...proposals on the table are still very sketchy; the Allston campus will really begin to take shape as the details get ironed out over the next few years, and the new campus could yet be a triumph or a total failure. Harvard has the opportunity to create a truly spectacular campus across the river given the proper commitment of time and money; It should not shy away from spending either to ensure that Allston is a place undergraduates will actually want to live...
