Walsh Construction Co. is providing GC/CM services for two seven story residence halls designed by Mahlum at the University of Washington’s main campus in Seattle. Both buildings are designed with a “live/learn” component that provides students with study and meeting rooms, lounge spaces and bicycle storage, and includes offices and areas for commercial/retail use.
Building 33 totals 96,882 sq ft and will house 278 students and include a common kitchen and central lounge, with flexible TV and study areas on each floor, laundry facilities and storage rooms. Work will complete in the spring of 2011, and students will occupy the new residence at the start of the fall term.
