Construction starts
on new apartments
■Two buildings, each with 36
one-bedroom apartments,
will be built to the east of the
University
By Brooke Ross
Oregon Daily Emerald
About 25 people attended Tues
day’s groundbreaking ceremony to
celebrate the University’s construc
tion of a new apartment complex for
graduate and law students.
The complex will consist of two
buildings, each with 36 one-bed
room apartments. The new housing
project will be located between
Moss and Villard streets, east of the
current Bean Complex and north of
15 th Avenue.
Michael Eyster, director of the Of
fice of University Housing, said the
one-and-a-half-acre complex will be
ready for students by fall of2001, and
the city has given project organizers
permission to begin construction.
The University should have a bid
for a construction contract by early
next week.
The State Board of Higher Educa
tion approved the $4.5 million
housing project in June. The project
is being financed by state bonds that
will be repaid with generated rent
revenue from the future tenants.
The apartment rental rates have yet
to be determined.
Deciding where the new apart
ments should be located was the
most difficult decision, Eyster said.
He is satisfied with the final site:
however, because students wiii
have several advantages. The com
plex will be close to grocery stores,
bus lines and the law school.
A disadvantage of the complex’s
location is noise from the nearby
bread bakery, but Jim Lewis, princi
pal architect of gLAs Architectural
Group, which designed the project,
is addressing the problem. He said
there will be a parking lot north of
the apartments to provide a buffer
between students and the noise.
University President Dave Frohn
mayer said he is looking forward to
the new complex because he thinks
it will establish a sense of communi
ty among graduate students. Frohn
mayer said one advantage of the
new housing is that students will be
surrounded by other people en
gaged in research, which should
promote a positive atmosphere for
studying and learning.
“I remember from my days as a
student,” he said, “that a sense of
community really occurs on a small
scale.”
At least one group is unhappy
about the housing project. Fliers
were posted near 13th Avenue prior
to the groundbreaking event, stating
that several trees and historical
homes will be cut down to make
room for the apartments. No groups
in opposition appeared at the event.
Eyster said that no historical
buildings were torn down. There
were two houses in question — one
was falling apart and the other has
been moved, he said.
