About The Village
The University Village is a 75-acre mixed use development initiative by Old Dominion University. With the University, and its 21,000 students and 2,000 staff and faculty, in addition to the Ted Constant Convocation Center as anchors, The University Village is a destination all its own with restaurants, retail, recreational facilities, hotel, residential, office and research facilities.

Cafe tables dot the pedestrian area along Monarch Way and provide a gathering place for ODU students, staff and surrounding neighbors.

Two parking decks are adjacent to the retail area providing ease and convenience for customers and employees.
