Devonshire Downs – a planned Cal State Northridge faculty/staff community
Over the last several years, it has become increasingly apparent that the dramatically escalating cost of housing in southern California is impacting the University's ability to meet its need for qualified faculty and administrators. In 2005, at the request of the University, the NCDC Board of Directors resolved to use available North Campus land for the development of faculty/staff housing. The development will be named Devonshire Downs – a link to the land's history, as it was once home to the Devonshire Downs race track. ( Historic Photos )
Devonshire Downs homes will be built in phases. Phase I will consist of 152 reasonably priced, for-sale town homes, to be constructed at the southern end of the North Campus, along Lassen Street . Groundbreaking is anticipated in late 2008, with the first homes to be ready for occupancy in late 2009.
Pre-construction work on Devonshire Downs began in 2005.
- Valeo Companies was retained and completed a market and program analysis.
