New $102M apartment complex opens for New Orleans medical students in Mid-City
A much-delayed $102 million residential complex for New Orleans-area medical students has opened in Mid-City, marking LSU's first newly-built student accommodation in New Orleans in more than half a century.
The 10-story building fulfills a long-standing aim for LSU officials who have been looking to make student life on the downtown health sciences campus more attractive, and to provide affordable alternatives for students who have faced rising rents in the city.
The complex has 579 beds in 473 units that can accommodate health science students, faculty and administrative staff working at LSU and other qualifying colleges, including Xavier University, Dillard University and Delgado Community College.
