The site is located within an urban regeneration area close to Leicester city centre and universities. The new 669-bed student and key worker accommodation offers a mix of double studios, deluxe and standard rooms in clusters of 5 or 6 with associated communal facilities, grouped around a central courtyard.
The accommodation blocks step in two or three storey increments, from a lowest level of 8 to a maximum of 15 storeys to relate to existing buildings in the surrounding area and to address the main street frontage.
