PennTerra designed this two phase 28 acre residential community serving Penn State’s main campus. The 14 acre first phase of the project (The View) consisted of 216 apartments, a clubhouse and recreational amenities. Working for Homestead Development Partners, PennTerra designed The Valley, the 14 acre, Phase 2 of the student housing community. The challenges of the project included the siting and layout of the 540-bedroom apartment building and the 35-bedroom townhouse building between the existing Phase 1 community (the View) and Interstate I-99.
