The Walk - Starkville - It's Being Built on Wingo Way and It's Huge...
.. I was not aware that it was under construction near the intersection of Wingo and Blackjack on the new cut-through road that was completed within the last year.
Sorry - can't post a picture - unable to figure out how...

Here's the link. Evidently a super-nice student housing place.
Could be gameday as well.
Really nice.

The county is going to have to build or expand some roads over there. That's a lot of people to be down a 2 lane road to get into Starkville.

A lot of kids live much nicer than we did - that's for sure. I remember when having an apartment with a washer and dryer was considered lux.

We toured State two weeks ago with our daughter and we drove by this place the night before. It's absolutely massive. Pictures do not do it justice.

There's a construction section in the pics. Looks like an older home owner refused to sell, and they just built around him lol.

Tell me about it. I live 2 miles east of campus on Blackjack. At least there is a turning lane all the way from campus to Bardwell Rd now. Back when it was only 2 lanes and The Grand (it wasn't called that originally) opened, I would have to frequently sit 5 minutes or longer waiting to get past it because of all of the dumb-asses trying to turn in who didn't know the gate code. I often wondered what would have happened if someone down Blackjack would have had a medical emergency and the ambulance couldn't get through because of 5 vehicles blocking both lanes due to someone not knowing a gate code.

That house looks decent, maybe it should be turned into a bar.

Bad location. That would kill closer to the district but unfortunately students do not want to live out that way. Campus Trails found that out, Aspen found that out, and so on and so on.

Yep, that's not Smith Hall (torn down years ago), or Suttle Hall (Also torn down years ago). My senior year I did live in a house on Cedar Lane, but it did not have all of these amenities. WOW!

Kids going to run up student loans to stay there.

Yup. That's mostly what student debt is now. Even the money actually being paid to the school is largely paying for amenities and extra administration, not increases in the cost of actually educating people.

Not sure about that....I can name 5 buildings that were men's dorms when I was there, and they are now "administrative" type buildings.

??? How would having 5 prior dorms that are now "administrative" type buildings not be consistent with my statement?
