Just east of MSU's campus, a new residential complex has opened offering more than 200,000 square feet of housing for students. The Lodges of East Lansing opened this month with 220 units totaling 638 bedroom.
"It's set up like a community instead of an apartment complex," says leasing manager Kimberly Gorman. "We have a really nice clubhouse with flat screen TVs, a study area and a game room."
The development also offers residents a pool, 24-hour fitness center and free weekday shuttles to campus and weekend shuttle to Grand River. The property is owned and managed by
Capstone Development Corp. from Birmingham, Alabama.
"They specialize in student housing," says Gorman. "The amount of students here was a big reason for coming to
East Lansing, and there was nothing like what they do here before. It's a really good location for them."
The Lodges of East Lansing is located on Hannah Boulevard. The development offers one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom units.
