On Nov. 7 a significant fire occurred off-campus at a construction site adjacent to the Olympia Drive Apartment complex in Amherst, which is not a university-owned property. Updates will be posted when available.
The study, conducted on behalf of Way Finders, found the region needs 23,000 new housing units to meet current demand and that, even with projected declines in local population, the gap will still be over 16,700 units by 2035.
