Building Today for Tomorrow

In May of 2006, Clark University broke ground on Blackstone Hall, a new apartment style residence hall.  This state of the art facility opened to students for the 2007-2008 academic year, and primarily houses junior, senior, and graduate students.

Blackstone Hall, located along Beaver Street and Florence Street, is home to up to 208 students and features modern amenities such as central air conditioning and full kitchens with dishwashers.  To make room for this new hall, 7 houses were demolished and recycled, including 87, 85, 83.5, 83, and 81 Florence Street, and 18/20, and 30 Beaver Street.  Each apartment unit houses 4 or 6 students in a mix of double and single rooms.  All aspects of this project were carefully planned and reviewed by students and staff alike, and we are all confident that Blackstone Hall will be a place that students will be proud to call home for many years to come.
