it's going to be first-year housing next year
Mission Park consists of 4 houses put together to form one huge ugly award-winning concrete monstrosity. The 4 houses are [[Armstrong House|Armstrong]], [[Pratt House|Pratt]], [[Mills House|Mills]] and [[Dennett House|Dennett]]. It looks like a dungeon (or parking garage, depending on whom you ask) from the inside, a cinder block from the outside, and (reportedly) a phoenix from above. However, since the [[Summer 2003]] renovations, it's extremely nice on the inside, featuring large, well furnished lounges for every four hallways, and general lounges on the ground floor with two televisions, two pool tables, and an old but still awesome foosball table.
The complex's class make-up has changed over the years. When it was initially built in the early 1970's, it had a mix of sophomores, juniors, and seniors. From the 1980's to the presentuntil Spring 2006, the vast majority of Mission has been was sophomore housing. Most students consider spending their sophomore year ; beginning in Fall 2006, Mission to will be a good thing, as friends' and classmates' closeness makes socialization with new and old friends easier this exclusively first-year than any otherhousing.
There has been debate as to whether Mission in fact looks like a bird from above. Judge for yourself:
