The Pinnacles Apartments

Student Housing

 

2012

New Student Housing

The new Pinnacles Apartments Student Housing at Western State  program included almost 90,000 sf of apartment style suites, with options for 2, 3, and 4 bedroom units, providing 228+ beds in single and double occupancy bedroom options. This program also includes a hierarchy of both indoor and outdoor social gathering spaces as well as support spaces for study rooms, laundry, game rooms, community gardens, a recycle center, and housing office. 

It was determined the building should be designed as a 50 year building that will stand up to the severe winter environment of this 8,000 ft Colorado Mountain Campus setting.

 

The construction is a (4) story, masonry and stucco veneer, on Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF's). The floors are a composite steel joist and concrete floor deck system with metal framed interior walls with high impact finishes and light gauge metal roof trusses. Roof coverings are a combination of high impact concrete "S" tiles and standing seam metal roof panels over a full coverage Ice and Water Shield underlay.
