LV Collective has completed Rambler Athens, a 600,000-square-foot student housing development located at 558 W. Broad St. near the University of Georgia campus in Athens. The community offers 750 beds across 342 units in studio through five-bedroom configurations. Shared amenities include a second-floor study mezzanine with private study spaces and conference rooms; a resort-style swimming pool and hot tub surrounded by fire pits, a grilling area and jumbotron; an on-site dog spa; and a fitness center with state-of-the-art cardio machines, weightlifting equipment, a yoga studio, artificial turf area and two saunas. The community also features a coffee shop dubbed Daydreamer Café, as well as 22,692 square feet of retail space. The development team for the project included Niles Bolton Associates, Krywicki Interior Design and Rabren General Contractors.
Studios are $1700/month for 400 sq. Ft.
Please explain why we have more student housing and less housing for residents of Athens? Less than half the residents in Athens could afford to rent here.
And before anyone says anything about the mayor…remember this started under the previous ultra conservative mayor, Nancy Denson. Girtz just isn’t progressive enough to help the people who live here.
