More student flats are on the way
Works are now underway iQ Student Accommodation purpose-built development on Bath Street with members of the project team taking part in an official ceremony last week.
The complex at 225 Bath Street will replace a vacant 1970s office block which has now been demolished. Delivered by contractor GRAHAM and designed by Glasgow-based architects Cooper Cromar, it will create 551 bedrooms across 12 storeys. Due for completion in 2025, students are said to benefit from"luxury communal amenities" including a gym, a gaming arcade, dining spaces and social areas set across 16,390 square feet.The new complex sits adjacent to an existing iQ Student Accommodation block at Elgin Place which includes 323 beds, also delivered by GRAHAM.
The new design will complement the wider streetscape with a glazed frontage and iQ Student Accommodation will offer a variety of tenures, allowing students to choose the block they live in.Two tower cranes will be erected on site in September, with the core construction anticipated to take two months and the concrete frame to follow.
"We are keen to support wider regeneration efforts in the city, helping to retain its reputation as an attractive destination for both local and international students."
