Demolition, site work, paving and new construction of a mixed-use development in El Paso, Texas. Completed plans call for the demolition of a educational facility; for the construction of a educational facility; for site work for a educational facility; sidewalk / parking lot; and for paving for a sidewalk / parking lot.

Located on university-owned property on the campus of The University of Texas at El Paso, this Project will provide housing and support amenities for incoming freshmen. The site of the new residence hall will be the north side of Kidd Field as set out in the 2024 Campus Masterplan (available on UTEP's website). The existing stadium seating in this area will be demolished as part of the project. Consisting of single and double occupancy rooms configured in pods with suitestyle bathrooms, the 225-250 bed co-ed dormitory style student housing complex will be economical in nature and will have a 30-year life span. This project will also include a dining hall with associated kitchen that will accommodate the 225-250 student residents (mandatory mealplan), plus a portion of the approximately 425 residents at the neighboring Miner Village Student Housing facility. The kitchen equipment will be included in the CCL. Site planning efforts should accommodate an additional similarly styled 225-250 future dormitory, proportional dining hall/kitchen with capacity to meet the needs of the future dormitory and structured parking. Permanent parking for the Project is assumed to be provided within the existing campus parking capacity. The exterior of the building will reflect UTEP's Bhutanese style and campus building colors but will be designed to be a cost-effective housing option for students. The Owner will require the CMAR to price several options during the Definition Phase of the Project which is inclusive of OPR, Program, and Schematic Design. Options may include but may not be limited to precast concrete, light gauge metal, wood structural systems, other structural options, UT design guidelines, and systems more in line with typical multifamily construction, other system solutions, adjustment of room mix to include multi-occupant apartments, etc. This process may require early Life Cycle Costs Analysis (LCCA) to aid the Owner in the decision-making process. In addition, this Project shall provide for indoor and outdoor community amenities. These may include, but are not limited to flex space, lounge, laundry, group study areas, group living spaces, conference spaces, and exterior gathering areas. General site improvements include irrigated landscaping, roads, drives, fire lanes, potential for expansion of and connection to campus utility infrastructure. The Total Project Cost (TPC) for this project is $62,700,000. The TPC includes a Construction Cost Limitation (CCL) of $40,365,750 for new construction of the Student Housing Complex. Anticipated Issue for Construction "Make Ready" packages include demolition, site preparation, infrastructure improvements, and below-grade/at-grade structural systems. All remaining Issue for Construction Documents will be referenced as "Project Completion".
