Summary:
- Tulane University plans a new apartment-style student housing development near Greer Field at Turchin Stadium, set to open in Fall 2027, accommodating approximately 160 students across 39 units with a mix of undergraduate and graduate residents yet to be determined.
- The project will incorporate a new, permanent location for the iconic Ted’s Frostop diner, preserving its historic signage and menu, while providing a temporary food truck during construction and employment continuity for existing staff through the developer’s related businesses.
- Developed and owned by RCR Claiborne Venture, LLC, the building will meet or exceed local zoning standards and be operated by Tulane as part of its student housing portfolio, including on-site security that aims to enhance safety for both residents and the surrounding neighborhood.
