Landmark JV Opens Connecticut Student Community
The seven-building property totals 890 beds.
A joint venture between Landmark Properties and Manulife Investment Management has officially opened The Standard at Four Corners, an 890-bed student housing community in Storrs, Conn. This is the partnership’s first project to come online and the first purpose-built student property in more than a decade.
The developers took out a $122.5 million construction loan from Wells Fargo Bank to develop the 392-unit community, according to Yardi Matrix information. Partners on the project included Dwell Design and Landmark Construction.
Located at 1725 Storrs Road, The Standard at Four Corners is about 1 mile from the University of Connecticut at Storrs campus and 3 miles from Morrone Stadium. The city center is more than 2 miles away.

Common-area amenities include a fitness center, clubhouse, swimming pool and hot tub, Jumbotron lawn, as well as study lounges and firepit and grilling areas. The community also has a gaming lounge and roughly 390 parking spaces.
Landmark’s expanding student housing footprint
The joint venture has more student housing projects underway. Two of them, the 859-bed The Mark Tallahassee and the 834-bed The Mark Knoxville, are set to come online later this year. Earlier in 2025, the duo also broke ground on The Standard at West Lafayette, a 678-bed student development.
Landmark Properties recently opened its first Minnesota student housing property. Dubbed, The Standard at Dinkytown, the 17-story building totals 1,021 beds.
