Wolf Village Apartments was designed with community in mind. The community heart is the town center, a vibrant civic core that includes retail, social, academic and civic spaces, as well as a plaza at the intersection of the two primary pedestrian pathways. Each apartment within this community is designed for four students in single bedrooms, with two full bathrooms, a kitchen, living room, washer and dryer, as well as cable-ready TV and high-speed Internet connections. To accommodate students’ academic needs, each floor has a study room and lounge. The complex also boasts a 27-seat computer lab, seminar room with adjacent kitchen, fitness room and volleyball courts. It also is near the Wolfline bus stops.
The project scope for Wolf Village Apartments included the phased construction of a 1,280-bed apartment-style complex, all associated site development, parking and a 2,000-ton regional chilled water plant. The entire village contains eight, four-story residential buildings totaling about 450,000 square feet.
