The North District Phase 2 project, a joint initiative between UC Riverside (UCR) and Riverside Community College District (RCCD), is currently under construction to meet the increasing demand for on-campus housing. This ambitious undertaking involves the program, design, and construction of approximately 424,000 square feet of new student housing, featuring 1,568 beds in 429 apartment-style units equipped with modern amenities such as Wi-Fi, air conditioning, study areas, and communal spaces. Aimed at providing affordable, safe, and convenient housing options, the project will reserve 652 beds for low-income students. In addition to alleviating the shortage of on-campus housing, the development aims to integrate RCCD students into the UCR campus community, fostering a vibrant and inclusive environment conducive to academic success.
This intersegmental housing project is meticulously and intentionally designed to break persistent cultural and psychological barriers that many of our first-generation and low-income students experience through a process of total immersion into the UC system. My hope is this unique partnership and innovative approach will serve as a model for others to emulate around the state.
