Campus Advantage, Carter and Chance Partners Break Ground on New Student Housing Community in Oxford, MS




 OXFORD, MS, Sept. 25, 2012 – Community officials, developers and leaders from the student housing industry gathered this morning at a groundbreaking ceremony for a new student housing project at The University of Mississippi (top left photo) in Oxford, Miss.

The occasion also marked the official unveiling of the development’s name, Highland Square. Officials say the name stemmed from Oxford’s historic town square, which exudes the character and southern charm that Ole Miss students have enjoyed for years.

“Oxford and the University of Mississippi pride themselves on the rich heritage and vibrancy of their community,” said Andy Feinour, senior vice president of Carter. “We wanted to reflect that not only in the name we chose for the property but also in the way we designed it – to instill a town square type of feel to the community’s common areas.”

Carter and Chance Partners will serve as developers of the new $40 million, 753-bed student housing project that is located less than two miles from the University of Mississippi campus.

 Construction is expected to be complete by July 2013. Highland Square is currently accepting leases for fall 2013. More information on the community may be found at www.livehighlandsquare.com
