"This four-story, 314-bed residence hall, designed to have the feel of a small town, is centered on a courtyard with spaces for a bookstore, a restaurant, and smaller retail operations. There is also a large common room on the main level. Upstairs, students' rooms -- primarily doubles with private baths -- are arranged into four distinct student neighborhoods on each floor. There are also two apartments for faculty or staff members and nine rooms for residence directors. " — Chronicle of Higher Education
