Tenants anticipating move-in at a new Syracuse apartment complex will have to wait even longer past their original date. The Coda Apartments leasing office released a statement to its residents last night saying they are planning a ‘phased move-in.’
Students currently displaced by the Coda’s construction have to make arrangements for more nights in their temporary lodging. The Collegian Hotel and Suites, across the street from the Coda, has accommodated dozens of students. The Coda has a partnership with the Collegian to offer tenants a discounted rate during their stay.
Future Coda resident and current Collegian Hotel guest, Mya Palmer, is grateful that she’s at a hotel that will accommodate her stay on such short notice. “I’m blessed to be in a situation where it’s extended, but you know other people aren’t so blessed because they didn’t stay at this hotel and they have other living arrangements. So, now they have to figure out where they’re staying for the next two days or three days,” said Palmer.
Collegian concierge Taela Nicholas says the hotel is happy to accommodate students for the extra days. With the fall semester right around the corner, the Collegian won’t suffer when students begin checking out. “We got parents, move-in week so that alone will bring us all the revenue we’ll probably need for the whole year,” said Nicholas.
According to the Coda leasing office, all units will receive certificates of occupancy on Aug. 1. Phase one of move-in is expected to be Aug. 3.
