Building 1516 Residence Hall

University of Georgia

Academic / Institutional Athens, GA  |  160,000 sf

The University’s first LEED certified residence hall continues the style of the classically inspired campus vernacular.

A symbol of the University’s commitment to sustainability, this six-story residence hall is designed to house 500+ residents in a traditional paired roommate floor plan. A two-story loggia overlooks a promenade that aligns with the surrounding community and accommodates the active pedestrian and bicycle circulation. Flexible spaces accommodate all aspects of student living. A flexible multipurpose room with kitchen easily converts from lecture space to tailgate event space in an instant.

Noteworthy: Day-lighting, energy efficient systems, resident comfort controls, bicycle storage and recycling stations create a comfortable living environment that provides sustainable, green initiatives to its students and visitors.
