Construction has officially begun on a new 90-bed student residence at the Nova Scotia Community College Kingstec Campus in Kentville, Nova Scotia. Announced by provincial officials and school leadership on September 22, 2026, the facility aims to alleviate local rental market pressure and accommodate students who commute from surrounding areas. The project forms part of the provincial government's broader student housing expansion across Nova Scotia Community College campuses, which has previously delivered 350 spaces across Pictou, Akerley, and Ivany campuses. Construction on the Kingstec Campus residence is scheduled for completion in the fall of 2028.
