SFSU West Campus Green Student Housing & Health Center

The residence hall is a 120,000 square-foot, six-story all-electric building and was developed using a cluster concept, a design strategy intended to help first year students generate tight knit communities. This approach fosters natural communities of approximately 35 students by grouping triple rooms with a dedicated lounge, all gender bathroom facilities and a resident advisor. As students adjust to their first home away from home, this gives them space to socialize, sleep, study and dine within the comfort of an intimate community grouping.

Designed to create a residential anchor for the west side of campus, the project also includes a second all-electric, three-story, 50,000 square-foot building that will include a dining commons and student health and well-being center. This will enhance student wellness by consolidating health services, counseling and wellness programs into a single, accessible location. This strategic inclusion helps ensure that students frequently visit and use these essential services.

The progressive design-build project is seeking LEED Gold recognition.
