Yeshiva University will construct a new seven story 300-bed dormitory, with the aid of a $1,225,000 loan from the Federal Housing and Home Finance Agency, it was announced here by Dr. Samuel Belkin, University president.
The new building, scheduled for completion next February, will also contain lounges, eating facilities, faculty suites and administrative offices and, with the future addition of a chapel, is expected to become the social center of Yeshiva’s expanding campus.
