I wonder if they are thinking of young professionals as tenants or just finding that there are more students willing to pay higher rents than they had anticipated?
I've seen building plans that are mostly 1-bedroom and ones that are mostly 2-bedroom. No 4 and 5 bedroom units that I recall from the buildings after the OP and zoning changes.
Realistically, students are the existing source of demand, and developers are targeting investors with pitches that are about renting to students. But that aside, the buildings should function fine for anyone, and with so many buildings being constructed, developers will probably need to change their marketing tactics to appeal directly to other groups.
