Phase II construction of Austin Peay student housing now under way
November 17, 2011
Clarksville, TN – For the last few weeks, the Austin Peay State University community has watched the demolition of three student residence halls that have been a mainstay on the campus for more than three decades.
Now, another historical milestone will unfold, months after the new Castle Heights residence hall opened on campus. Construction for the second phase of the student housing complex is under way on Drane Street – and it has the potential to change the layout of the campus.

Designed to be Root of Student Success
Clarksville, TN – As the large crowd of Austin Peay State University supporters and new students listened to speakers at the grand opening of the new Castle Heights residence hall, they also caught a glimpse of a housing transformation behind them.
Near Castle Heights stood Hand Village, which had been until today the newest residence hall on campus. Then there were the three old halls situated nearby – Cross, Killebrew and Rawlins – waiting for demolition in the near future. Castle Heights replaces those three.
