  I'm having trouble finding unit counts for the dorms, but according to https://fis.ipf.msu.edu/fisapps/fit/v3/prod/#/buildings?sortfield=GROSS_SQFT&dataset=msuBuildings, Holmes Hall is the largest residential building in square feet on campus. It's 394,953 sq ft. Akers would be #2 at 385,797 sq ft.
  
  This shows the west half of Holmes Hall,

  Here's a picture of Lansing Towers for comparison. The thread is much better with pictures

  I just looked around a bit and came up with these in addition to Fountain Place and Lansing Towers:
  
  Motor Wheel Lofts: 119 units
  Riverfront Towers Senior: 200 units
  Capitol Commons Senior: 200 units
  Friendship Manor: 172 Units
  Somerset Apartments: 100 units
  2900 Place: 231 units
  Ferris Park: 106 units
  Tamarack Apartments: 100 units
  Cedar Place: 220 units
  South Washinton Park: 188 units
  East Glen: 100 units
  Burcham Hills is also pretty large but I can't find any info on the number of units.
  
  I'm thinking that has to be about all of apartments with over 100 units in a single building in the area. As you can see about three quarters of these are senior apartments and there are plenty more senior apartments with 50-100 units in a single building.
  
  So 2900 Place is the largest single apartment building in the area by number of units, that's kinda surprising to me.

  I'm not sure if the South Washington Park unit number includes the townhomes but I don't think it does, there are only about 20 of them anyways. It says there are 113 efficiencies, 70 one bedrooms and only 5 two bedroom units, explaining the large number of units given the buildings size.
