Dalhousie University’s Board of Governors has approved the design of a new residence with the capacity to house approximately 200 students. The university will be removing its Mini-Residence houses in Spring 2025 to make space for the new, six-storey facility. The building will include one-bedroom nano-units, standard one-bedroom units, and other configurations with in-suite kitchens and bathrooms. These units were designed in response to increased demand for apartment-style options from students, especially upper-year and mature students. “We are excited to announce this new residence, which aims to provide students with more housing options and support the growth of vibrant, sustainable communities in our province,” said Dal President Kim Brooks. The residence is expected to open in 2027.
