GMI Construction has been appointed to develop a £24 million student accommodation scheme in Birmingham. The project will see the redevelopment of a currently underused, former BT brownfield site in Stirchley to create a managed residence.
It will comprise a mix of cluster beds and single occupancy studio rooms for 167 students, together with a reception and communal areas.
Designed by Birmingham-based practice Glenn Howells Architects, construction of the development in Dogpool Lane is expected to begin in August and be ready in time for the 2023/24 academic year.
