Osprey Fountains Student Housing

Jacksonville, Florida

Resort-like housing appeals to today’s university students.

When the University of North Florida wanted to attract students and boost the on-campus resident population, they turned to 澳门足彩app for a design-build solution. The result of the collaboration is Osprey Fountains, an appealing, resort-like residence that showcases a new level of on-campus living.

We combined practical options and sought-after amenities.

With four, five-story connected residence towers and 1,000 beds, the facility is a creative arrangement of four- and six-bedroom suites, staff and guest apartments, laundry facilities, themed lounges, common kitchens and study areas. The facility’s resort-like amenities include a fitness center, convenience store, lighted tennis courts and volleyball court, basketball court, track, putting green, picnic tables and a swimming pool complex complete with a lazy river pool.

  • Site improvements included bike lanes, sidewalks, roadway and a 16’-wide pedestrian boardwalk over adjacent wetlands
  • Significant Concrete Structure Award – American Concrete Institute 2009
