UAB is transitioning from an Urban commuter campus to a residential campus. The campus developed a 1,500 bed residential complex and needed a dining and social component.
The Commons on the Green provides a large food court, plus a combination Convenience Store/Diner. This small operation is designed to provide food, socializing and study space to the residents through extended operating hours.
This labor saving operation has been successful in creating a sense of community and identity for the complex.
