Oregon State University's Hatfield Marine Science Center in Newport, OR, has constructed a new housing facility, Harborton Street Housing. Built just a short distance away from the coastal campus and out of the tsunami zone, Harborton Street Housing adds another 77-units to the existing HMSC housing pool.
Here's an excerpt from the OSU Today article, "New housing at Hatfield addresses area shortage":
'Sidney Noble is manager for student and campus services at Hatfield and says the new building helps fill a gap in local housing.
“It addresses a critical need for housing on the central Oregon coast,” Noble said. “With a significant housing shortage and high cost of living in Lincoln County, where much of the existing housing stock is aimed at vacationers and short-term stays, this new facility provides a much-needed alternative for students, Newport-based faculty and staff and mission partners.”
... “Our first tenants are a mix of Oregon Coast Community College students, predominately in OCCC’s Aquarium Science program, and OSU students taking Hatfield-based courses or contributing to research at the campus,” Noble said. “Most of this initial cohort will be with us from 10 weeks to nine months.'"
