4. The Station at Mill Point

Opening fall 2012

Elon has broken ground on the first phase of a new village-style residential area on the playing fields across from the Elon fire station on Williamson Avenue. Designed to house more than 300 juniors and seniors, the two-story residences will have two to four apartments per building, with each unit featuring single rooms for greater privacy. The 12.5-acre site will have architecture on a scale designed to integrate well with the Town of Elon and will include amenities to promote bonding among classmates, including recreational facilities, an amphitheatre, gardens and other outdoor gathering places.
