INSANE: Belfast student accommodation block proposed for sensitive location | Vintage Vibes

Belfast councillors are to make a site visit to the city centre location earmarked for what could be the largest student accommodation project ever seen in the city.

The proposals, which have been brought forward by Mandeville Developments NI, would see 862 units constructed close to Ulster University's campus on York Street.

The development site currently comprises a vacant brownfield site used for car parking behind Belfast Central Library at lands bounded by Library Street, Stephen Street, Little Donegall Street and Union Street. Currently, the largest scheme in Belfast to have been granted the green light is a 774-unit scheme under development by Student Roost on Nelson Street.
