  The extraordinarily rapid growth of George Mason University in the last three decades is accompanied by an increased demand for on-campus student housing and support services as the University expands its educational mission. The Northeast Sector Development (NESD) project is an integral part of a master plan that will enable continued growth of this world-class campus.

At $75M, Northeast Sector Development is the University's largest construction project to date. Planned and executed as a design-build effort, the 450,000 SF mixed-use development consists of:
 
  • Five multistory residence buildings, at 5 to 6 floors each, supporting a total of 1,030 beds.
  • Exhibition-style dining facility with a capacity to seat over 500 diners.
  • Fitness center with cardio, weight training, and indoor basketball and racquetball courts.
  • Retail operations that will include a coffee house/convenience store and wood-fired pizza and pasta restaurant.
  • Various recreation and office spaces.

NESD will also extend and relocate utility infrastructure critical to current university operations and required for future growth. This scope includes high temperature hot water and chilled water distribution systems and communication systems.

 


 


Chesapeake River Way is now closed to routine deliveries. Routine deliveries that use Chesapeake River Way to access North Chesapeake, South Chesapeake, and Fenwick Library will now be required to use the lot in front of Finley building as the closest point of vehicular approach.

There is no direct vehicle or pedestrian access to the North and South Chesapeake modules as Chesapeake River Way will be closed to non-construction traffic. The construction gate at Patriot Circle will be locked. This affects student access to the Registrar, Financial Aid and Student Accounts. Pedestrian routes from central campus will not change. However, the closest accessible parking will be in the lot north of the Finley Building and in the SUB I lot. Most student transactions can be handled remotely through Patriot Web self-service, phone or FAX. In person transactions for those students who cannot physically access the North and South Chesapeake modules will be facilitated by the Disability Resource Center. Students who need assistance should contact Ms. Debbie Wyne, Disability Resource Center, at 703 993-2474.
