Opened in 1982, New Leonardtown is a series of six three-story brick garden apartment buildings that accommodate a total of about 400 residents. For the most part, these are four bedroom units (two doubles, two singles) shared by either six men or six women. Some units are equipped and accessible for students with disabilities.
