Campus Apartments has begun work on a 23-suite
student-focused housing development at the corner of 41st and Sansom Streets.
The five-story structure at 123 S. 41st St. will be the
University City-based company’s first newly built student accommodations in the
West Philadelphia college district, Campus Apartments chief executive David
Adelman said in an interview Wednesday.
The $16 million project, which is scheduled for
completion in August 2018, will accommodate 100 residents, Campus Apartments
said in a release.
While Campus Apartments has developed new college housing
nationwide and owns properties across University City that it has converted
into student units, it has not before built anything there from the ground up,
Adelman said.
The company did previously develop a University City
hotel — the Homewood Suites at 4109 Walnut St. – and has built student housing
for Saint Joseph’s University.
