Cornell University East Hill Village
Cornell University East Hill Village
East Hill Village transforms a 1970s single-story auto-oriented strip mall into an attractive, walkable, mixed-use neighborhood at a key gateway for Cornell University. A new Square lined with storefronts and a hotel creates the neighborhood’s heart, and is surrounded by more than 1000 new residences and new University and spec office space for more than 1000 employees. As East Hill Village takes shape, the site will provide another option for Cornell families to live close to campus, enjoy a rich mix of amenities in a striking natural setting, and walk, bike, or take transit to campus. The redevelopment surpasses LEED-ND certification and is a major step in Cornell University’s efforts to achieve carbon neutrality.
