UVA Darden Graduate/Family Residences

The University of Virginia’s Darden School Graduate/Family Residences is part of a master plan development that aims to enhance the academic experience of students by improving connectivity between the North Grounds and Central Grounds. The new residences are located off Duffy Boulevard in the North Grounds precinct of the University and provide opportunities for connections to surrounding facilities and the natural environment.

The project program features approximately 218 units, and 350 beds contained within two new buildings totaling 231,000 sf. The units are primarily one- and two-bedroom apartments, along with studios and three-bedroom apartments. The residential units are constructed in two buildings oriented in an L-shape and wrap the existing parking deck and site work. In addition, several bridges and archways that connect the different buildings are incorporated into the design.
