AUSTIN, Texas - ColoradoDesk -- Parallel, an Austin based real estate development company, proudly announces a 298-unit, 802-bed purpose-built, mixed-use student housing development located in the highly desirable Northgate Campus neighborhood adjacent to the Texas A&M campus in College Station, Texas. The 18-story high rise is scheduled for delivery in Summer of 2023.

This iconic project at one of America's most prestigious research universities marks another significant accomplishment for Parallel. Founded in 2016 by two highly experienced multi-family housing professionals, David Pierce and Kristen Penrod, the company specializes in identifying, visioning, and delivering mid-rise and high-rise infill student housing and multifamily developments on time and on budget in some of the nation's most competitive and complex markets. Prior to forming Parallel, Pierce and Penrod led the delivery of more than 11,000 beds of purpose-built student housing, both off-campus and on-campus, valued at over $1 billion. Since its founding, Parallel has successfully delivered over $200 million in new development and has $500 million of multi-family and student housing opportunities in its current development pipeline.

For the College Station project, Parallel partnered with a nationally recognized institutional student housing investor and the project is being financed by BMO Harris Bank N.A. as Administrative Agent and Webster Bank N.A. as documentation agent.

Under the terms of a long-term ground lease, the project will be built on property owned by the University Lutheran Chapel (ULC) of College Station.  This arrangement marks the continuation of a long-term successful relationship between Parallel's principals and the Texas District of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod (LCMS), t. The ULC will be part of the development as a ground floor use continuing its almost 100-year history serving the students of Texas A&M University and Blinn Junior College.

Penrod said "We are very appreciative of our longstanding relationship with the LCMS and are proud to have them as partners and tenants. Parallel is providing turn-key design and construction of the ULC space and we look forward to moving their staff and student ministry back into a modern state-of-the-art facility and worship center."

Pierce further noted "We have been targeting the market and potential sites at Texas A&M for quite a while waiting for the right opportunity to present itself.  We are so pleased that our patience and diligence paid off. This new development in College Station will be a one of kind in the market overlooking the campus, in the heart of the highly desirable Northgate district."

Community amenities will be designed to fit the needs and lifestyle of its residents.  Outdoor amenities include multiple rooftop spaces, including a pool, two hot tubs, an outdoor theatre, poolside gym, a sand volleyball court, cabanas, outdoor kitchen areas, multiple fire pits, and other outdoor formal and informal gathering areas.
