LEONARDTOWN (OLD)
Opened in 1972, Old Leonardtown is a series of six three-story garden apartment buildings that accommodate about 225 residents. There are two basic floor plans: Two-bedroom, two-bath units for four men or four women, and four-bedroom, three-bath units (two doubles, two singles) for six men or six women. Some units are equipped and accessible for students with disabilities.
Additional Amenities
Apartments in Old Leonardtown open into a large common area that is furnished as the living room/dining area. This open space is flanked by bedrooms on each side and the kitchen at the rear. Each kitchen has a full-size refrigerator, range/oven, sink with disposal, and cabinets. Microwave ovens are permitted. Bathrooms are accessed from within the bedrooms. Bedrooms are smaller and configured differently than in the University’s traditional residence halls. Bedroom furnishings include raised/lofted twin bed with mattress, desk set with drawer, and three-drawer dresser for each student. Options for rearranging bedroom furnishings are very limited. Bed frames are standard length, and mattresses longer than a standard 75” cannot be accommodated. Air conditioning and temperature control is available year-round.Resident Staff
Many Resident Life staff members are available to assist residents with a variety of needs and services. Undergraduate Community Assistants serve as a primary resource for residents and manage the community’s 24-hour service desk. The desk, located in the Leonardtown Community Center, is the central location for mail and package pick-ups, key borrowing and replacements, and other customer service requests. There are undergraduate Resident Assistants, along with one full-time professional Resident Director, who live in the community. The Resident Life staff works with residents to manage the apartment environment and foster a valuable social, cultural, and academic experience through various community development programs. Residents also are supported by many programs and services of the Department of Residential Facilities, including service calls for maintenance and repairs, apartment security, landscaping, housekeeping and recycling services in the Community Center, furnishings and fixtures replacements, etc.Typical Room Layout
