Elon University Global Neighborhood

The project, delivered in two distinct phases. Phase one initiated the construction and delivery of the first two residence halls, while the second phase delivered the remaining three residence halls and the Neighborhood’s Global Amenities building — a large, multi-use facility located in the center of the complex. With cross-channel collaboration in mind, Global Neighborhood offers students the option to live in several language learning communities, including La Casa de Español, La Masion Francaise, Japanese House, La Casa Italiana, and Deutsches Haus.

Designed and constructed to provide the ultimate in student comfort and convenience, the interior of the residence halls includes a combination of single- and dual-occupancy rooms with adjoining bathrooms, spacious common areas, hall kitchens, and classrooms. The Global Amenities Building contains the Isabella Cannon International Centre as well as faculty offices, ample study rooms, a grand ballroom, and other large gathering spaces. Construction on the project included shallow foundations, load-bearing metal stud framed structure, cast-in-place elevated concrete slabs, light gauge roof trusses, shingle roofs, and brick façades.
