In a move to address persistent housing challenges, the Industrial Development Board (IDB) has sanctioned $180 million in bonds for the construction of a new student housing complex at Tennessee State University (TSU). The development, known as ‘Cobblestone Village Residences,’ aims to alleviate the growing demand for student accommodations in Nashville.
Prime Location Near TSU Campus
Situated opposite the TSU campus, the six-story complex will boast a strategic location, offering convenience and accessibility to students. This proximity is expected to foster a vibrant campus community while providing students with easy access to academic facilities and extracurricular activities.
Extensive Housing Options
Cobblestone Village Residences will comprise two buildings, accommodating a total of 719 beds across 155 units. The project aims to cater to the diverse needs of students by offering various floor plans. These include 5-bed layouts (30%), 4-bed configurations (50%), and 3-bed options (20%), spanning an expansive 280,000 square feet of living space.
Timeline for Development
Construction of the student housing complex is scheduled to commence in June 2024, with a targeted completion date set for the fall semester of 2026. This ambitious timeline underscores the urgency to address the pressing housing needs of TSU students and reflects the commitment of stakeholders to deliver quality accommodations in a timely manner.
