On
June 21, 2002, Place/Structures won a nationwide
RFP from Bowie State University for the development
and management of a student housing facility.
The solicitation was to develop and manage a 5-story
459-bed state-of the-art facility. The Place/Structures
Team was successful in designing a cost efficient
building full of amenities that students are accustomed
to having in their own homes.
Place/Structures
will be responsible for the construction of the
185,000 square foot facility that will include
amenities like individual bedrooms with high speed
internet access in every bedroom; cable tv access
in each suite; laundry facilities on each wing
of every floor; 24 hour security desk with video
surveillance and card access; lounge area on every
floor, a mini storage facility for use by the
residents; a 3,100 sq. ft. Infirmary on the basement
level; and a host of other amenities.
There
will also be a Town Center connected to this facility
that will house the Management/leasing offices;
Computer facility; exercise facility; recreation
room; conference room to accommodate 75 students;
media room; along with outdoor facilities for
social gathering and barbecues.
