Suffolk has been awarded the construction management of California Polytechnic State University’s large-scale student housing expansion that will significantly increase on-campus housing capacity through new modular construction and renovations. The $1.2-billion housing program will add approximately 3,600 new student beds and renovate roughly 1,200 existing beds on the San Luis Obispo campus.
“Cal Poly has set an ambitious vision for expanding housing, and Suffolk is leveraging modular construction to deliver at the speed the university needs and the scale it demands,” said Preston Hoopes, general manager of Northern California at Suffolk. “The team is working in lockstep with design and manufacturing partners, coordinating every phase with precision to drive an efficient, predictable process while minimizing disruption across the active campus.”
The expansion will help reduce pressure on the local rental market as universities across California continue to face limited student housing supply. The program also supports the university’s long-term housing strategy and its goal of ensuring two years of on-campus housing options for students.
