A new development is under construction in College Park that could house nearly 1,000 Terrapins.
Gilbane Development Co. announced Tuesday it began construction on Tempo, a student housing project just off the University of Maryland’s campus with 296 units and 978 total beds.
The project is being built at 8430 Baltimore Ave. on a 2-acre site that formerly housed a Burger King and a vacant retail building. The site is directly east of campus and north of student housing buildings The Varsity and University View.
The Tempo building is scheduled to welcome its first students in August 2022. It received approval from the College Park City Council in January. The developer declined to comment on the project’s financing structure.
