Exciting Developments on the Horizon in College Station!
Greetings from College Station, Texas! There’s an electrifying buzz in the air as a brand-new student housing development, aptly named Legacy Point, has broken ground. Located near the vibrant intersection of University Drive and College Avenue, this expansive project will take over the spot that was once home to the beloved Hurricane Harry’s.
Building a Bright Future for Students
This ambitious project is a collaboration between LV Collective, a national powerhouse in real estate development, and Culpepper Realty Co., a proud local firm with deep roots in College Station. The aim? To create a vibrant and welcoming living community for students attending Texas A&M University, which plays a significant role in the life of this city of over 100,000 residents, including about 60,000 students. With construction already underway, students and locals alike can look forward to some incredible new spaces coming their way by the fall of 2027, just in time for the new academic year!
More Homes, More Community, More Fun!
Covering a sprawling 10 acres, Legacy Point will feature a stunning seven-story apartment complex with more than 300 units. Whether you’re looking for a cozy studio, a spacious one-bedroom, or a place to share with friends in a six-bedroom unit, this development has got you covered. In total, more than 953 beds will be available, accommodating a growing number of students and ensuring that everyone can find their perfect home away from home.
But it won’t just be about living arrangements! The Legacy Point project is also dedicated to enhancing the overall lifestyle of its residents. Plans include over 50,000 square feet earmarked for retail, entertainment, and outdoor amenities. Imagine walking down to your favorite café or grabbing a bite to eat right outside your home. This development aims to integrate seamlessly with the existing community, creating a harmonious blend of student life and local charm.
A Nod to the Past with a View to the Future
What’s in a name? For Legacy Point, quite a lot! The name pays tribute to the Culpepper family, who have been shaping the area for five generations. This new development is about honoring that legacy while also paving the way for future residents to create their own stories. It’s all about fostering a sense of community that enhances connections among students and locals alike.
Parking and Accessibility
Navigating College Station is about to get a whole lot easier with the addition of a seven-story parking garage that will provide over 750 parking spaces for residents and visitors. No more endless hunts for parking! Plus, the development aims to connect key local spots, like Century Square and Northgate, making it a breeze to explore all the fantastic dining, shopping, and entertainment options the area has to offer.
What About Local Businesses?
You might be wondering about the effect of this new development on existing local businesses. The good news is that popular fast-food spots such as McDonald’s and Taco Bell will remain unaffected by the construction. However, there have been concerns about nearby businesses, like Chipotle and Schlotzsky’s. Rest assured, representatives have confirmed that these local favorites will not be impacted either, ensuring the community’s beloved eateries will continue to thrive.
Mark Your Calendars!
With construction officially underway, everyone in College Station should mark their calendars for Fall 2027. The first phase of this exciting project, situated at 313 College Avenue, will encompass an impressive 750,000 square feet, and the larger master plan promises to deliver a total of 2,800 student housing beds. With all this development, College Station’s future looks brighter than ever, especially for students at Texas A&M University!
