• The site is at the southeast corner of 39th Street and Dewey Avenue, on a parking lot already owned by UNMC. It is close to the Student Plaza, ​the Center for Healthy Living, and the campus’ academic buildings.
• Construction is scheduled to begin in October 2024, with the building being ready for occupancy in August 2026.
  
• The 205,000-square-foot facility will include studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom units.
  
• When completed, the building will be able to house 300 students with affordable housing.
  
• Can also serve as short-term housing for clinical rotations.
  
• A 2022 survey of UNMC students to assess the need for affordable housing near the Omaha campus demonstrated an overwhelming need.
