The developers behind a planned project near The University of Texas at Dallas campus are looking to add more student housing. If you’re a student at the Richardson-area school, that’s a good thing. The school admits to be way behind housing demand for its 30,000 students. The 13-acre development is located between Waterview Parkway and the President George Bush Turnpike, about a mile from campus

The development team has been given the okay by Richardson to build 340 units, which is expected to increase the number of beds to 534. The room configurations will include one up to five-bedroom units. Five live-work units are planned in the building that make up more than 8,000 square feet. The developer is ZoneDev, which represents project owners George Bush Highway Investment LLC and Affordable Space Rental.

The university is expected to add more than 4,200 students to its population by 2030, requiring about 10,000 units for future student body growth.
