Need a pizza or cell phone? This new student development will have it all -- including a gondola ride to campus.

The 44-acre student village in Orem, Utah is projected to hold up to 6,000 students after completion. "For those in the mood for a sandwich, a tan, a new cell phone and perhaps a pizza or two -- all without leaving the apartment complex -- the future is bright... Upon completion, Parkway Crossing will be the largest student-housing complex in Orem. The cost for the first phase of three main buildings, is 23 million... Plans for the complex also include a church meetinghouse, four swimming pools, and a full-service gondola to transport students across the interstate to UVSC. Developers plan to complete the gondola by 2004."
