University of North Carolina at Greensboro

Mixed-Use Village – Ph I

Greensboro, NC

After completing the Neighborhood Master Plan in 2010, the University of North Carolina at Greensboro (UNCG) selected Lord Aeck Sargent to design the first phase of the new mixed-use residential village.

The Village, located adjacent to the existing campus includes 800 new residential units as well as mixed-use spaces. The project provides more on-campus housing for students while revitalizing the streetscape and neighborhood as part of a larger City of Greensboro Lee Street Corridor plan. The program also includes academic and social spaces that create a living/learning environment.

Important community features are:

  • Sensitivity to existing trees and community open spaces
  • Blending the campus and the neighborhood
  • Providing a template and an anchor for future development along the Lee Street corridor

Phase I, which includes four buildings, is LEED Silver Certified.
