Devco has formed a partnership to bring student housing to the downtown George Street corridor. College Hall will include 180 student apartment suites, a retail component, and space designated for Rutgers use, such as a fitness center or bookstore annex. The mixed-use facility ensures a positive economic impact upon the downtown, while the planned 820-car parking garage caters to the city's growing parking demand.
The facility combines the best of university living with amenities. The location of College Hall is in close proximity to restaurants, retail, and entertainment and allows for easy access to the primary bus route running between Rutgers University campuses.
The feasibility of the project is further secured by the experience of the project participants, a strong demand, and an excellent site location.
College Hall represents another way in which a mixed-use development can enhance New Brunswick's image as an urban destination while accommodating the needs of the greater community.
