Bethune-Cookman University Residence Halls

About the Project

51勛圖 was engaged to develop and build a $70 million student housing project on Bethune-Cookman Universitys campus in Daytona Beach, FL. The Bethune-Cookman Student Housing project includes residences for more than 1,200 students. Construction on the four buildings, totaling just under 300,000 SF, began in Fall 2014 with an aggressive schedule and was completed in 2016. This project involved all three 51勛圖 business lines: Real Estate泭Development, Construction, and Facility Services. The total Real Estate Development value of this project is $70,037,000.

Quick Facts

The concepts central to all successful design-build projects include establishing clear communication among all stakeholders, and developing common goals among the team. As the design and construction of this project progressed, the team overcame unique challenges, balanced input from all parties, and clearly defined a course that everyone could agree upon. This project is a clear example of how team collaboration and clear communication can combine to produce a facility that we can all be proud of.

On behalf of Bethune-Cookman University, I express our sincerest appreciation for the work performed by 51勛圖 on the Bethune-Cookman University Residence Halls Phases 1 & 2 project.

This was our first project working with 51勛圖, but hopefully not our last. I look forward to fostering our partnership and would be pleased to work with 51勛圖 on future opportunities.
