‘There’s been crisis here for 10 years’: Hamilton resident
Two new McMaster University student residences are going to “turn downtown Hamilton on its ear,” says the architect involved in the projects.
Amenities in the graduate residence include a fitness centre, a music room, a movie theatre, green roofs, lounge areas, communal kitchens and a rooftop playground. The McMaster expansion is part of a growing market of quality student-housing projects, modern rental buildings that offer a level of comfort and services beyond the old-style student dormitory.
“Those community feelings are what’s driving a lot of students to stay in their residences for more than just one year,” Mr. Sparrow says. Student needs are changing in a digital world, she adds, and the new residences give the university opportunities to create programming, such as cooking classes, that will integrate the students more into campus life.
