Project Description
- Situated at the gateway to the Longwood Medical Area, the 267,500-sf building rises 18 stories and presents a six-story wing along Brookline Avenue animated by glimpses of student life on the ground floor, a convenience store, and a streetside plaza that serves as a central gathering place for residents. The first floor includes student lounges, group study rooms, an all-purpose media center, a fitness center, and a dance studio, all open to the entire Emmanuel community.
- Primarily catering to upper class students, the building offers contemporary apartment-style living spaces with views of the Fenway and downtown Boston. Most are four-person suites – two-bedroom, two-bath units with a kitchen and living room – as well as some studio apartments.
- The new building is a part of the Institutional Master Plan and will help the College’s initiative to accommodate undergraduate growth to 2,200 students.
- The project is certified LEED-NC Gold.
