University Housing/Design Build

Fair Oaks Walk – Pomona
California Polytechnic University, Pomona

A partnership between Cal Poly Pomona University and The Olson Company, Fair Oaks Walk provided a rare new homeownership opportunity to faculty and staff seeking to live in close proximity to the University.

Formerly the site of an aging neighborhood retail center, The Olson Company designed Fair Oaks Walk as a mixed-use community comprised of two-story, at-grade townhomes and a 2,700 square foot retail building, all of which were designed in the Craftsman style to compliment the adjacent neighborhood.

No. of Homes: 34 homes
Community Size: 2.7 Acres
Site Density: 14.78 du/acre

Pepperdine University – Malibu

Pepperdine University successfully collaborated with The Olson Company to design and build a housing masterplan for the University’s upper campus. This unique location, with panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, required careful land planning and consideration of the existing landscape.

The Olson Company constructed a 56-home contemporary faculty housing community, a 318-unit student housing complex as well as a multi-purpose conference facility for the University. This partnership resulted in all homes completed on time while exceeding the University’s expectations.

No. of Homes: 374 homes

San Jacinto Villas – City Of Rancho Mirage

The City of Rancho Mirage Housing Authority selected The Olson Company to design, entitle and construct their newest affordable housing community on a site that was formerly comprised of dilapidated commercial buildings and vacant homes. The San Jacinto Villas was the largest publicly funded affordable, senior, LEED Certified community under construction in the State of California in the 2010 Fiscal Year.

The San Jacinto Villas is a hallmark community providing connectivity from the existing Whitewater Park to the Public Library as well as multiple community amenities including a recreation building with salt water pool and spa, putting green, bark-park, and a continuous walking trail within the community.
