New Rochelle, NY
4 stories over pedestal
84 modular boxes
Designed by Doban Architecture for occupancy by students at Monroe College, this five-story, 94-unit residential building is designed for offsite construction and in compliance with the new form-based zoning adopted in New Rochelle.
The economical, wood-frame modular construction system helps contain construction cost for this student housing project. A rain screen cladding system juxtaposed with iron-spot grey brick gives the building a contemporary appearance. A parking garage at the ground level serves the college community, and a landscaped terrace and ground-floor common area provide amenities for students.
