Barcroft Space Usage

How DPR Split the Data to Undercount Utilization

DPR presented space usage data to suggest Barcroft is underutilized. But their methodology was designed to produce that conclusion.

What DPR Did

DPR split gym usage data and excluded three rooms entirely from their analysis. They measured utilization across all hours — including early morning and late night when no programs are scheduled — rather than during actual program hours when the facility runs at near-full capacity.
