In a first for this county, Cabrillo College is partnering with UCSC to plan and build student housing on the Cabrillo campus in Aptos.
The site is adjacent to the outfield fences of the Cabrillo softball/baseball fields. In the aerial photo at right, a bit of Highway 1 can be seen in the lower left corner.
According to a Lookout Santa Cruz article, the project is scheduled to break ground on Sep. 29. The story reports: "Slated to open in fall 2027 with 624 beds — 60%reserved for Cabrillo students — the complex will also feature a child care center, wellness resources and priority housing for low-income and housing-insecure students."
