Media Highlight: New Dal housing officially opens

Posted by Communications and Marketing on September 11, 2014 in Media Highlights

From last Friday's Chronicle Herald:

The green roof isn’t quite green yet, but the paint has dried and students have moved into the newest residence at ±«Óătv University.

LeMarchant Place, a new 165,000-square-foot building at the corner of South and LeMarchant streets, officially opened its doors on Thursday.

The seven-storey structure has 143 residential units, accommodates 326 students and also houses various student services, including an international centre, a health clinic and counselling offices.

“It’s marvellous, particularly the views of Wickwire Field,” said ±«Óătv president Richard Florizone during the opening.

“For those of you who aren’t students, I’ll tell you, it’ll make you want to be a student again.

“The goal of the building is really about weaving together all the strands of Dal student experience to better support our students and make them more successful.”
