Can Your Student Housing Do All of This?

The Student Residency Program at The Pillars of Prospect Park offers more than a place to live. It gives University of Minnesota students a modern home with purpose. Located less than a mile from campus, this unique opportunity provides easy access to university life along with quiet spaces for studying.

What sets this program apart is the intergenerational community. Students live alongside older adults, building meaningful connections, gaining mentorship, and contributing to community life. It is a supportive, stable housing option that helps students grow personally and professionally.

What This Means for Our Community

Being featured on WCCO is an honor. It also reinforces something we see every day. Intergenerational connection is powerful. It brings energy and purpose. It creates a place where everyone feels seen and valued. We are proud to share this story with you and grateful that the wider community can see what makes The Pillars of Prospect Park such a special place to call home.
