RFP #1739 New Housing Building (NHB) New Construction CM/GC Services

Description

PSU is proposing to construct a new housing building as set forth in this RFP (the “Project”).  

The proposed new building will be located on the site of the current Montgomery and Blackstone Buildings which will be demolished prior to construction.  The demolition design is not included in this proposal and will be designed by a separate design firm.  The new building is envisioned as an up to seven-story building with up to approximately 170,000 gross square footage.  The new building will serve primarily as student housing for PSU students comprising primarily double occupancy student rooms with the first floor being a mixture of common space, classrooms, building amenities and utility rooms.  PSU is not tied to any one building construction type but has done preliminary exploration of a five over two building structure with two levels of structural concrete with five levels of wood framing.  

The project will consist of two major components.   The first will be the demolition of the existing Montgomery Building, Blackstone Building, and Montgomery Bike Garage.  The second will be the construction of the new Housing Building on the same site.   The demolition design will be designed and permitted separately from the new construction, but the demo is planned to take place starting July 2026 and the new construction to begin immediately after demo is complete.

The new PSU Housing Building project is required to be fully open and operational prior to Fall Term 2028.
