The Retreat at Westerly
Borough of State College, PA
This 11.2-acre site in State College, Pennsylvania will be home to "The Retreat at Westerly," an off-campus, cottage-style apartment community with 546-beds at 418-428 Westerly Parkway, just one mile southeast from Penn State University.
The Retreat at Westerly will be comprised of a mix of townhomes and garden-style buildings that offer 142 units in a mix of two to five bedrooms. The site is large enough to support the more than 237,000-square-foot cottage-style project while still meeting requirements to remain within a commercial district, which will allow residents a quick walk/bike to campus and easy pedestrian access to retail, entertainment, and dining options.
A 10,500-square-foot clubhouse and amenity area will include a resort-style pool, pickleball court, sauna and cold plunge, Jumbotron, study lounges, fitness center, grilling and fire pit areas, multisport simulator, and additional greenspace for outdoor recreation. The community will be adjacent to Westerly Parkway Plaza, a grocery-anchored shopping center that will provide a convenient off-site retail amenity for residents. On-site parking is planned for 417 cars, as well as storage for bikes and scooters; a CATA shuttle stop is planned on the premises.
Landmark Properties and PennTerra Engineering have worked together on several prior projects in State College. These include The Station State College, The Legacy at State College, The Metropolitan at State College, and The Standard at State College, as well as The Retreat at State College, which is across the street from this new project and Landmark sold in 2013.
Landmark Construction will serve as the project’s general contractor.
