UC Davis breaks ground at Orchard Park Shares UC Davis celebrated milestones in two major student housing projects on Monday. The final phase of The Green at West Village was completed, and a ceremonial groundbreaking marked the beginning of work on the Orchard Park housing development. “These important milestones on Orchard Park and The Green at West Village are helping to fill a critical need for on-campus housing,” said UC Davis Chancellor Gary S. May. “This is a big win for students, the university and our surrounding communities. It’s all thanks to close collaboration with the city of Davis, Yolo County and our development partners.”
