Ark Wrecking of Oklahoma is in the process of clearing the area for construction of a five-story student housing complex which, along with another planned complex just around the corner, could bring more than 1,200 bedrooms to the neighborhood.
The 2.99-acre development – called 555 Maple – is aimed towards university students interested in living in downtown Fayetteville.
