Students will now have another off-campus housing option to consider as they make arrangements for the next school year.
Kincaid Henry Building Group and The Element 903 have partnered up to construct a new mixed-use student housing project at 903 E. Grand River Ave., directly across from the Bogue Street entrance to campus and McDonalds, near the MSU law and business schools.
“Location is huge,” property director Jon Foster said.
The living complex features two bedroom apartments, each with its own private walk in closet, European kitchen and full bath.
Foster said The Element 903 will also offer three different packages — a silver, platinum and gold suite, with the silver suite costing $750 a bed.
“Each room is over 1,000 square feet with granite countertops, nine foot ceiling and natural light in every room, which is pretty ... unique,”Foster said.
The complex will also be pet friendly but residents will be limited to one small pet per unit and are not allowed to have “large animals.”
A microwave, dishwasher, stove and oven, washer and dryer, a common area, hard surface flooring and a 24-hour emergency service are other included amenities.
Optional amenities include furniture, trash removal, internet service and underground parking.
The Element 903 offers year leases and a parent or guardian does not need to be present when the lease is signed.
International students will need their passport and I-20 to sign the lease.
The groundbreaking ceremony was held in October and The Element 903 is now taking applications for Fall 2015.
