48west adds giant 20-person hot tub to long list of perks

Did you say hot tub?

Yes we did! Coming to 48west this fall will be a huge 20-person hot tub. Imagine in this cold, nasty weather you and all of your friends are sitting in a bubbling hot tub laughing as the snow melts on your exposed, warm shoulders. This is just another outstanding amenity that 48west will add to the numerous benefits students receive while living at 48west.

Missed your favorite show? You can check out Theater 48 with its 106 inch projection screen and surround sound. Just find your favorite show with On Demand in HD and have a seat with up to 50 of your closest friends.

Are you ready to sweat? 48west’s 2,200 square-foot fitness center has individual TVs on all the cardio equipment, plus all the weights you should ever need to lift. Still want more? They’ve also got a fully loaded game room with pool tables, shuffle board, darts, an X-box with Kinect, a Wii, and more. Perhaps you were hoping to cozy up by one of the fireplaces in the commons while you watch the 70” flat screen TV – or maybe lounging in one of the private study rooms is more your style. They’ve got it all in the Commons for whatever your mood may be.

“Choosing to live at 48west was an easy pick,” said Andrea Tarrant, 48west resident. “The apartments are awesome, having your own bedroom and bathroom is always a plus, and there are a bunch of different styles to pick from, so you have a lot of options.”

She said though some of her favorite things about living in 48west are the Commons area, the tanning bed and the fitness center, the best part is the events.

“They really try to make it a community and a home away from home,” Tarrant said. “The events are a great way to get to know your neighbors and other residents. Events range from resident dinners, girls night out, Griffins games, block parties, Pinterest nights, March Madness competitions, cooking classes, bonfires, super bowl parties, Zumba and yoga classes, self-defense classes, pancakes at midnight, philanthropic events and so many more.”

She encouraged other students to check out 48west for a tour. The leasing office is open 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday-Friday, and noon to 4 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.

“Take the advice of one of your peers,” Tarrant said. “Hop on the 37 and take a short ride over to the leasing office today.”
