Some Capital Ideas!

Click to enlarge
You can look directly at the listing above of "select Major Capital Improvement projects that are currently in planning/design, construction, or post-construction phases." It, of course, includes the UCLA Grant Hotel for over $160 million. Or go to the source page for a clearer view: http://www.capitalprograms.ucla.edu/Projects/ProjectList?sortOrder=ESTStart

The link is highlighted in a Bruin student op ed in which the author posits that the costs of more and more student housing fall on students because of "demand." He doesn't consider the supply side, i.e., that there is a huge "hospitality" enterprise whose existence depends on such projects. You can find the op ed at http://dailybruin.com/2015/09/28/arthur-wang-perpetual-construction-shows-students-as-customers-not-residents/
