R&O Construction has laid the foundation on Joaquin Village, a new student housing project at 600 E. 600 N. in Provo, Utah.
Joaquin Village will house more than 900 Brigham Young University students in two buildings of three to five stories over one level of underground parking. A model apartment unit will be open for viewing in early 2012 with options of floor plans and size. Amenities will include a swimming pool and exercise area.
