The Lakeview Pointe project was briefly interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic and weather delays, but the contractor was able to overcome the delays and finish the project on time. The Macon Campus Recreation and Wellness Center is a few hundred yards away, with the dining hall in the Student Life Center just over the Macon Campus Lake bridge. In addition, Lakeview Pointe will include lounge areas and multi-purpose rooms for social and educational programming for students. Each unit will have two bedrooms with a shared bath, along with eight single-occupancy units for resident assistants. The new residence hall has a traditional design that will serve freshmen and sophomores at the university. HPM was engaged as program managers to oversee and manage the planning and construction of Lakeview Pointe, a 73,480 square-foot residence hall that roughly doubled the number of students who can live on campus when it was completed in 2020. MGA acquired a private apartment complex adjacent to campus in 2010, but it couldn’t meet the demand, often leaving nearly 100 students on a waitlist every year. Administrators at the Macon Campus of Middle Georgia State University (MGA) recognized an increasing need for on-campus housing since it opened as a small commuter college in 1968.
