Mike Byers, an associate vice chancellor, was interviewed by The Business Journal regarding the restarting of construction on Spartan Village after a fire delayed it back in March.
“We probably could have gotten it done sooner, but there’s not any benefit to doing that,” Byers said. “When it comes to student housing facilities, there’s really only two times you can fill it — August or August. If you miss August, it’s not like you can open it in September and open it like a normal apartment building.”
The construction is on track to being done by December. The other three buildings in Spartan Village are still scheduled to open on August 7.
