P3 Development – Extended Learning Complex
California State University
San Marcos, California
The new $81 million Extended Learning Building complex represents a new paradigm in P3 projects. Never before has there been the creation of a partnership between public and private partners wherein both mutually fund, own and operate a P3 facility into perpetuity. Built on privately-owned land, this new facility will not only be the largest academic building at Cal State San Marcos, but the first major P3 academic building in the 170-year history of the 23-university California State University system — the largest university system in America. This project is extraordinary in that it is expanding the boundaries of the land-locked campus, merging it into the vibrant urban village of North City. North City and CSU San Marcos will both figuratively and literally embrace each other through a developer-funded pedestrian bridge that connects the second level of the building with the campus, as well as a jointly owned parking structure. Retail and restaurants owned and operated by the private partner comprising the ground floor will further strengthen the bond between the campus and North City. And through private-sector efficiencies with full risk transference to the developer, construction costs per square foot are 85% of costs for facilities of comparable scope and quality elsewhere within the CSU system, all while meeting an accelerated schedule.
Total Cost $82,000,000
