Frey Residence Hall

Built in 2020, Frey Hall was designed around the concept of shared spaces - grouping students into clusters and pods to facilitate connection and community. With plenty of windows and a fireplace in the main lounge, there's a feeling of warmth through the building. In addition to a game room on the main floor, each pod has study spaces, social lounges, and a shared kitchen with lockable storage cabinets for residents' food, utensils, and supplies.

Frey Hall received the LEED Platinum certification, the seventh building in the world to achieve this rating. Sustainable features of the building include: energy efficiency above industry standards, carpet made from recycled content, and over 8,000 square feet of vegetated roof area.
