Current Students
I’m excited to share news of
upcoming transitions in
King’s College housing.
The College is expecting
it’s largest class of
incoming students this fall.
And, as a result of changes
in City housing regulations,
we have to reduce the number
of occupants in The Herald
Towers and The Vogue to
three students per
apartment. These factors
mean we’re growing and that
we need to find additional
housing.
Over the past few months
we’ve scrutinized numerous
buildings in various
locations, most of which
were inferior to our
standards, too expensive, or
too far from classrooms. We
have, however, found a great
building, called the Ludlow
Residence, that will serve
students well – a brand new
building owned by the School
of Visual Arts and located
20 minutes away door-to-door
on the corner of Ludlow and
Delancey Streets. Most of
the rooms are singles with a
handful of doubles; the
building includes amenities
that make it attractive:
- 24/7 security
- Secure key card entry
for the building and
student rooms
- Wireless access
throughout entire building
- Cable TV access in
every room
- FREE laundry!
- Temperature controls
in each room
- Vibrant neighborhood
with inexpensive
restaurants
- Large student lounge
- Outdoor terrace on
second floor
Take a visual tour of the
building by clicking

We plan to house all the
men in the Ludlow Residence,
while the Herald Towers and
the Vogue will be reserved
for female students. Because
the men will have additional
travel time, we will offer a
$50 monthly travel rebate
for students living in the
Ludlow Residence. You
will also learn more about
housing costs through Anna
Peters, Director of
Financial Services, over the
next few weeks in a letter
sent to your home address.
Our Residence Life team
is excited that the College
is growing, and this growth
is a tangible answer to
prayer. We are committed to
walking through this process
with you every step of the
way. If you have any
questions, feel free to
contact me, Shawn Best at
sbest@tkc.edu.
