Mithun is responsible for the designs.
Construction work has commenced for on UCLA campus on its latest student housing project, named Gayley Towers apartments. Plans call for an eight-story building offering 187 bedrooms, with a total of 545 beds. All rooms will be triple-occupancy rooms.
Renderings reveal a fun donut shaped footprint for the student housing campus. The bedrooms will be pivoted around an interior courtyard that opens to exterior elements. The apartments will offer a co-living style floor plan with communal bathrooms and shared spaces for cooking, eating, studying, and socializing.
UCLA received $35 million in state funding to do so, with a stipulation that the beds be offered for a monthly rental rate of $600. The remaining 184 beds would be priced at market rates.
The project construction cost is estimated at $108M. As per a landing page on the UCLA Capital Programs website, the project is expected to reach completion in September 2026.
