Scope : To Develop 600-Bed Student Housing Community in the institution’s North Campus in Fort Wayne, Indiana, United States
Purdue University Fort Wayne has entered a public-private partnership with Gilbane for the development of a 600-bed student housing community on the institution’s North Campus in Fort Wayne, Ind.
The project, financed through a private nonprofit foundation, will cost between $90 and $100 million. The community is expected to come online in 2026 and is part of the university’s initiative to add more on-campus student housing.
The 213,000-square-foot property will comprise 176 units, ranging from studio to four-bedroom floorplans and will include sustainable features such as energy-efficient lighting and appliances, along with water conservation measures. Community amenities will include a hammock farm, a basketball and volleyball court, a fitness center, a convenience store, study spaces and a gaming room. Students will also have access to a drop-off area for campus shuttles and rideshares, as well as 450 parking spaces.
Gilbane will handle development and construction management, Progressive AE is the architect for the project, whereas AVB is the designer-builder. Located next to Ginsberg Hall, the community will be five miles away from Fort Wayne city center. Several dining and retail options at Glenbrook Square are less than 1.5 miles from the development.
