Project Brief

At the prestigious Johns Hopkins University (JHU), DAVIS is building the replacement for the 1920’s-era Alumni Memorial Residence I (AMR I) which will accommodate twice as many first-year students as the current residence hall! This project also includes a replacement for the cafe next to AMR I. The new facilities represent a significant step in addressing the university's undergraduate housing needs.

This project builds on recently completed infrastructure upgrades that are helping modernize campus utilities and reduce reliance on fossil fuels. The new residence hall and dining facility—targeting a LEED Gold Certification—will connect to the new hot water distribution line that was built to support efficient, lower-carbon operations. In addition to hot water heating, the project will include an almost entirely electric dining hall and facilities designed to make recycling and composting easier for students and staff.

Stay tuned for more updates, and look for these facilities to open in 2028.
