Location Interview
1. How and why was this location chosen for The Levels?
“Proximity to the university and location, location, location. The fact that students need to not rely on any outside service to attend classes on a regular basis is the fundamental reason upon building The Level and its location.

This was unexpected and we had no idea The Hub was being built right next door.
