Xavier to launch residence/dining hall project
January 13th, 2010
Xavier University said it began construction in February on a 240,000-square-foot residence hall and dining complex, to be completed by fall 2011.
The university will issue $48 million in tax-exempt bonds on Thursday to help finance the project, at Ledgewood Drive and Herald Avenue, according to a news release.
The residence hall will house about 525 students in four connected buildings, and the dining complex will replace the Hoff Marketplace dining hall in Cintas Center.
Several houses will be demolished next month on Ledgewood and Herald to begin the project, Xavier said.
Xavier is a Catholic, liberal arts university, with about 4,000 undergraduates and 2,600 graduate students.
