MONTREAL—Campus Crest Communities Inc. has entered the Canadian student housing market through a joint venture with Beaumont Partners SA. In their first deal, the pair has bought the Delta Centre-Ville Hotel, a 711-room property in this city’s Downtown, for $60 million. They plan to convert the 33-story asset into an upscale student housing tower, with a mix of single and double units and expected delivery for the fall 2014 semester.
