About
Western Heights complex is for first-year students only. The innovative living concept has environmentally conscious features, ample public areas and abundant green space. Each living area is arranged into single-gender houses of 30-35 students with a kitchen and study area, plus centrally private bathrooms maintained by staff. Community spaces on four levels feature laundry and study areas, an open-air terrace, plus entertainment and game rooms.
Notice: There will be construction fencing up at the former site of the Bernhard Center during 2024-25. Demolition work will be completed, but there may be occasional work in the space. We want residents to be aware of the potential disruption.
