The University of Arizona has reduced the height of the new dorm planned on the northwest corner of Speedway and Campbell from 19 stories to nine.
The new plan also calls for an increased capacity of 1,300 beds, up from the originally projected 1,200, UA spokesperson Mitch Zak said Tuesday.
The dorm is still scheduled to open in the fall of 2028 and to include a dining hall.
“The reconfigured plan makes more efficient use of the property and also allows us to increase the new dorm’s capacity,” Zak said.
