Student Housing Opens at WesternU

POMONA, CA—Award-winning national architecture and planning firm KTGY Group, Inc. and student housing developer, Hanover Pacific, LLC, have marked the opening of the Daumier at Western University of Health Sciences, a $45-million 173,000-square-foot urban mixed-use graduate student housing community. Located on 3.6 acres adjacent to the WesternU campus in Pomona, CA, the four-story building includes 305 beds as well as 10,000 square feet of academic space for WesternU, a private, non-profit graduate school for health professions.

Designed to achieve LEED for Homes Silver certification or higher, the new graduate student living community provides luxurious apartment accommodations that include a combination of single- and double-occupancy apartment units. The majority of the 202 units are two-bedroom, two-bath apartments and are located in a single building with controlled access. The students will benefit from the high level of amenities such as a fitness center, community pool, study rooms, yoga studio, business center, complimentary coffee bar and valet services.The Daumier is the result of a public/private partnership with the City of Pomona, the Vehicle Parking District,  Hanover Pacific and Provident Resources Group, along with the support of WesternU. Hanover Pacific worked over a year with the City of Pomona to establish the public/private partnership, resulting in Hanover Pacific’s ability to  procure a very strategic parcel of land as it sits nearly ‘on-campus’ and adjacent to one of the most significant academic buildings on campus, the newly- built 180,000-square-foot Health Education Center, which was part of WesternU’s $100 million campus expansion project.
