Servitas to Develop Orange Coast College’s First On-Campus Student Housing
Irving, TX-based Servitas plans to build an 811-bed student housing project at Orange Coast College in Costa Mesa, CA. The more than 317,000-square-foot facility will be the first on-campus residence hall since the community college was founded in 1947.
The site plan and design revolves around campus connectivity and accessibility. The community’s grand entry plaza and open entrances to interior courts will allow students to flow through the development naturally. Future development of the campus will further reinforce these circulation pathways.
The project site is on campus land and is structured around a ground lease to a not-for-profit organization. This allows for tax-exempt debt financing with no recourse to the College, District, or taxpayers.
The design-build team for the project includes HPI Architecture, MVE Architects and C.W. Driver. Bond underwriting was provided by George K. Baum & Company, and the project manager will be The Scion Group.
