EDR BEGINS SECOND PHASE OF STUDENT HOUSING AT MANSFIELD UNIVERSITY

MANSFIELD, PA. — EdR has started the construction on a $53.6 million student housing development on the Mansfield University campus in Mansfield. The 684-bed project is the second phase of the university's master plan to replace outdated residence halls. The two buildings in this phase are scheduled to open in 2013. EdR recently completed the 634-bed first phase, which is fully leased for fall 2013. The Mansfield Auxillary Corp. is leading the on-campus housing revitalization and will own the lease-hold improvements through a ground lease with the university. The project team also includes WTW Architects and Wohlsen Construction.
