The Texas A&M University System selected Hunt’s team to develop, finance, design, and build a new 612-bed, on-campus student residence hall.

The living/learning community is located on the Texas A&M Galveston campus and was completed through a P3 contract utilizing a non-recourse, tax-exempt financing structure.

The project features:

Residence Hall: Two 6-story residential wings, each connected to a central 6-story Commons, containing a total of 612 residence hall beds in single-, double-, and quadruple-occupancy suites.

Commons: Includes classrooms, study areas, social lounges, offices, conference rooms, assembly areas, a lounge, a kitchenette, laundry, and a storage area. There is also a 1,700-square-foot convenience market.
