In August 2008, EW Howell Construction Group completed the Graduate Residence Hall on the Hofstra University campus in Hempstead, NY. This project included new construction of an 80,000-square-foot dormitory building for graduate and law students. Designed by Hillier Architecture, the 225-bed, five-story structure offers apartment/suite style living. Each suite has multiple bedrooms, with shared common spaces, kitchenettes and bathrooms.
