Robins & Morton has completed new freshman and Greek housing residence halls on Samford University’s campus in Homewood.
The five story, 160,000-square-foot freshman halls include 513 beds. Two smaller residence halls for upper-division students in Greek letter societies include 140 beds. The project also added 550 spaces to the north parking facility.
The projects are part of phase one of the Samford Horizons: A Blueprint for Tomorrow campus master plan.
“Samford seeks to be the nation’s premier university in providing a Christ-centered, undergraduate residential experience. These new facilities deepen our commitment to that goal,” said Colin Coyne, Samford’s vice president for finance, business affairs and strategy.
Matt Self, project director for Robins & Morton, said, “We are honored to deliver these important projects to our Homewood neighbor Samford University to support their continued growth, and provide comfortable housing for students on campus.”
Birmingham-based Robins & Morton served as general contractor for the project, with Davis Architects Inc. serving as architect for the Greek housing residence halls. Perkins&Will was the architect for the freshman residence halls.
