Cal Poly is adding more than 4,000 new on-campus beds through a partnership with manufacturing company FullStack Modular.
The university plans to build nine new dorms – each eight and nine stories tall – over the next five years on the current K1, K2 and R1 parking lots.
The new dorms will offer second-year students suite-style living, with three double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a shared living space.
Cal Poly said it expects manufacturing to start later this year, with the first buildings opening next fall.
The project is part of a $1 billion housing plan that also includes renovations to Cal Poly’s over 60-year-old red brick residence halls.
