University of the Sciences in West Philadelphia's Spruce Hill section plans a new six-story dormitory building at 46th Street and Woodland Avenue, according to documents posted Wednesday to a city website.
The 128,000-square-foot building will accommodate 218 units, most with two beds each, according to the application for consideration by the city's Civic Design Review board.
The project is being developed by Campus Apartments of Philadelphia and designed by Baltimore's Design Collective for the university, which awards degrees in pharmacy, science and healthcare fields.
The CDR board, which makes non-binding suggestions for the Philadelphia's biggest development projects as part of the city's planning process, is scheduled to discuss the plan on Aug. 2.
