Located at the gateway to the University of Oregon, the Ellis will be the premier student housing building with 260 units and 10,000 total square feet of prominent retail space on the ground floor.
The project is strategically positioned along E 13th Avenue, which serves as a major axis within the University of Oregon campus framework as the primary east-west corridor for pedestrians and bicyclists through campus. E 13th is also a defining street for campus as it houses the iconic Johnson Hall, Erb Memorial Union, the Lillis Business Complex, and hosts events such as street fairs and the ESPN College Gameday stage. It is also on the one-block stretch of dense retail and restaurants that serves as the primary social hub
for the student population with the main entrance to campus at E 13th Avenue and Kincaid Street.
Three new off-campus student housing projects, including The Ellis, will soon open within a 1-block stretch along E 13th, bringing nearly 1,100 new beds to the immediate area. Developers have been attracted to this compelling market, anchored by a Tier 1, Power 5 University, in a supply-constrained market.
