Maryville University cut the ribbon on its new residential facility, Maryville Hall, in a ceremony held Wednesday, Sept. 8. Situated within walking distance of all campus buildings, Maryville Hall, a renovated former hotel, is located on Maryville Centre Drive, near I-64 and Woods Mill Road. With its opening, 250 students are provided a safe, comfortable living environment that features a wide array of amenities.

“Maryville is a student-centered institution and that commitment extends beyond academics,” said President Mark Lombardi. “We’re dedicated to providing state-of-the-art facilities that include this residence hall, a new dining hall and additional facilities to enhance the student campus experience.”

Alderman Phil Behnen and Director of Planning Sharon Rothmel of Town & Country were on hand for the ceremony, along with other University friends and business partners.

“Everything Maryville University is doing – from this residence hall to the main building renovation to the new soccer practice field – is really enhancing Town & Country. We have a great relationship with Maryville University and we love to see the school succeed,” said Behnen.
