Four block building will be city's largest purpose-built student accommodation scheme
Belfast's largest ever purpose-built student accommodation scheme has been approved, comprising over 1,000 bedrooms in a four block building in the Titanic area of Belfast.
The council planning report describes the application as the “erection of a purpose-built managed student accommodation development, with the additional use of accommodation by further or higher education institutions outside term time". The statement adds the plan involves “a car-free scheme with highest sustainability standards in the city, including a BREEAM Excellent rating, rooftop solar panels, carbon-free heating using air source heat pumps and heat recovery units, rainwater recovery systems, and a green travel fund".
The council received no objections from statutory or non-statutory consultees. One letter of support was received. The report states: “A sustainable transport fund of £150,000 is proposed as part of this scheme. The applicant proposed that in the first instance the fund would be used in conjunction with Translink.
