PROJECT SHOWCASE 2019 PROJECT SPECS W Project Name: Academy 65 ith a shortage of on-campus housing, California State University Sacramento has attracted national student housing developers to the 65/Folsom corridor. Academy 65 is among the first privately developed properties targeted to serve the student community. Within walking distance to the campus, Academy 65 features furnished, sleekly modern apartments where leases and community space are structured to be dorm-like. Each floor has a library, and the community center on the first floor includes a leasing office, a 24-hour gym, game room/study lounge, bike storage, and space for a future retail store. The courtyard on the second floor features grilling, lounge, fire pit and hot tub areas. Tricorp Group, Inc. built the structure with a type 1 concrete first floor podium and 5 stories of type IIIA wood framed construction on top. Wildfire smoke and continual wet weather posed schedule challenges, but Tricorp pushed hard to accelerate the schedule to a successful completion.
