UWindsor begins construction of new student residence

The University of Windsor has begun construction on a new student residence, which is set to improve the student experience and address the student housing crisis. The six-storey building will have 452 beds, six community lounges, a house lounge, laundry facility, and a 275-seat food hall. “We’re really excited to be able to accommodate more of our undergraduate and graduate students both from the area, from across Canada and from across the world,” said UWindsor VP of Finance Operations Gillian Heisz. The residence is slated to open by Fall 2025 and was made possible through a public-private partnership with Tilbury Capital.
