Neighborhoods
Wondering where you will call home next year?
Welcome to Anderson Hall – home to townhouses and floorhouses, known on campus as Neighborhoods. You can pick a large group of friends to live with (between 7 and 14 others), create your own theme, and name your neighborhood. This is a great opportunity for student organizations, peers within a major, or a common interest group to live together.
Join a tour or event featuring Anderson’s many styles of living spaces to answer any questions you may have on how to start your own neighborhood for next year, or to join one that is already existing.
We want you to live in Anderson next year. Join the neighborhoods!

View Oren Gateway Center on the campus Virtual Tour
Oren Gateway Center is a multi-purpose building of 118,000 square feet of living, working, studying, eating, and meeting space, and was designed by BWBR Architects in St. Paul (who also designed Lindell Library). Oren Gateway is Augsburg’s “front door”—a 180-degree realignment from the early 1900s when Old Main welcomed a neighborhood from which it was later separated with the construction of Interstate 94. Oren Gateway residential spaces provide trendy flats/condo housing for 106 students with underground parking.
The building design has been carried out in conjunction with energy efficiency and environmental responsibility from the beginning. Work with an energy consulting group has helped the building meet strict State of Minnesota energy standards. On the outside, with bio-retention in mind, its landscaping design captures and filters much of the storm sewer run-off.
