Pond Road

The Pond Road residence opened in September 2004 and is home to approximately 430 undergraduate students.

This building features two-bedroom suites which share an ensuite kitchen and bathroom; this means increased privacy and optional meal plans.

To create a comfortable home away from home, there is a large ground floor common room which features a laundry room, comfortable lounge furniture, TV, and landscaped courtyard outside. It's a great place for students to gather, study and relax.

There are senior student Dons in residence as well as a Residence Life Coordinator; ensuring that the residence is a vibrant, fun, supportive and positive place to live.

Among the building's interesting and environmentally-friendly features is the 1,000-square-metre planted roof which will increase thermal insulation and stores ground water (reducing the need for sewers). The nine-storey residence features the advanced technology of "in-slab radiant heating and cooling" which uses less energy and provides more comfort than conventional forced-air or electric heaters.
