The Principals of CDP have a combined experience of more than 50 years helping colleges and universities overcome real estate development and housing challenges. Our mission is unique to the student housing industry in that we focus on projects where we are in partnership with the university— rather than simply building apartments in a community with little regard for its plans, its institutional objectives or its long and short-term goals. We have built our reputation on collaborating with schools and respecting and burnishing the unique campus culture of our partners. We work hard every day to establish creative solutions that align the interests of the municipal, private and university project stakeholders, inclusive of housing and student life professionals, finance executives, presidents, facilities personnel, and the many others involved in development on or near a college campus. We value the unique qualities that exist on the campuses spanning the country and respect the individual quality and characteristics of a school. We don’t approach a project with a preconceived formula of how a structure should be crafted because of what we did on some other campus. Our philosophy is not “One size fits all.” Instead, as our Chairman Emeritus, Mike Mouron often says, “We cut the pattern to fit the cloth.”
