Scheduled Completion: Fall 2018
Lister 5 is being constructed as a coed first-year residence incorporated into the existing building complex of four Lister towers. The facility is targeted to house approximately 520 students and will be designed to support a variety of cohorts and enhanced student experiences. It will be linked to the other buildings in the Lister community and contribute to an overall culture and engagement within the surrounding neighbourhood and the existing Lister complex.
This residence will help support the university's goal of providing guaranteed housing to all students accepted for enrollment in their first year. Being built in close proximity to Lister Centre, an already predominantly first-year residence, allows access to the many student support services and resources that are concentrated in this area.
The Lister 5 residence will be located east of 117 Street and south of Mackenzie and Henday Halls and is targeting a Green GlobeTM rating of Three Globes. Keep up with the residence's status via its progress photos.
