Â鶹´«Ã½rtb recently celebrated a historic day as we broke ground to launch our newest construction project and public-private partnership (P3), . The new eight-building, 248-unit luxury-apartment community, located on the north side of campus on Wesleyan Drive, is expected to open in 2020. We are proud to embrace both sides of Wesleyan Drive, expanding our presence as we expand our programs and enrollment. Public-private partnerships, also called P3s, are becoming a prominent part of the higher education landscape. Through this P3 developed between Virginia Wesleyan and The Franklin Johnston Group, previously unused, but valuable, University land is being put to good use through an innovative relationship that meets the needs of the University and the adjacent City. Thanks to our friends at The Franklin Johnston Group, led by VWU graduate Taylor Franklin '04, President and Chief Operating Officer of TFJG, for stepping up in this significant way.
During the groundbreaking ceremony, it was wonderful to visit with leaders of our City. Among others, we thank (pictured right) former Virginia Beach Mayor Will Sessoms, Virginia Senator Bill DeSteph, and Virginia Beach Mayor Bobby Dyer for their ongoing support of this P3.
