DEVELOPMENT: Core Spaces breaks ground on 2,201-bed asset in Texas. Core Spaces has broken ground on Hub College Station, a 2,201-bed student housing community adjacent to Texas A&M University. Austin Pagnotta, Managing Director of Student Housing Acquisitions at Core Spaces, said the project marks the company's first development in College Station and its first ground-up student housing project in Texas, highlighting the opportunity to deliver an amenity-rich community while benefiting from construction efficiencies at scale. Construction is being led by Treehouse Construction, a joint venture between Core Spaces and Findorff Construction, with Antunovich Associates serving as architect, interior design led by Core’s in-house team under Karen Herold in partnership with Antunovich Interiors, and Pacific Life providing project financing. The community is expected to open ahead of the 2028–2029 academic year.
