Landmark Properties has partnered with Peninsula U.S. to acquire a 67-acre site in Columbia, S.C., and commence construction on a 197-unit, 826-bed cottage-style student housing community.
Landmark Cottage Construction, the in-house general contractor for Landmark Properties, is managing construction on the project. The new student cottage community is expected to open for occupancy in August 2026.
