EdR to Build $90M Off-Campus Student Housing Near Michigan State

EAST LANSING, MICH. — EdR will build an off-campus student housing development in East Lansing under a joint-venture agreement with RISE: A Real Estate Company (formerly Ambling University Development Group). EdR will develop, construct and manage a mixed-use student community located within walking distance of the Michigan State University campus. EdR will own 90 percent of the $90 million development, serve as managing partner, and be responsible for leasing and management of the community. Construction began recently on the unnamed wrap-style project of 824 beds in a mix of one-, two- and four-bedroom apartments. The development will also feature more than 4,000 square feet of retail space. Apartments will include private bedrooms and baths, washers and dryers, furnishings and granite countertops. Community amenities will include a covered parking garage, computer center, study room, fitness center, and two courtyards with grilling stations, televisions and volleyball courts. The property is scheduled to open in the summer of 2017.
