ABHA is beginning the masterplanning of the east campus housing which will include the demolition of several antiquated dormitories, phased construction of several new residence halls to accommodate 2,100 beds, and the infrastructure, utilities, paths, roadways and supporting services to completely redesign this portion of the Newark campus. Completion of all 2,100 beds will be accomplished over a 7-8 year period.
Planning will include a new 'secondary' campus entrance to the east of the housing development. This entrance will welcome pedestrian circulation from remote shuttled parking locations. Students will enter through this east campus gateway, traverse through the residential and recreational areas en route to the academic part of campus on The Green.
The masterplanning will evolve around several existing university buildings that will be re-purposed to support the new housing, as well as the recently renovated Russell Dormitory and Dining Hall completed by ABHA in 2008.
