The latest scheme will see 55 student clusters and 55 self-contained student apartments in buildings ranging up to six storeys.
The project will offer purpose-built, managed accommodation for students at Warwick and Coventry universities.

By GlobalDataThe project’s layout and design reflects the local setting, including the locally-listed The New Albany public house.
Besides helping in with the regeneration of the local area, the project could reduce the impact of students occupying local family housing.
Galliford Try Building East Midlands managing director Jon Marston said: “We have an excellent track record in delivering high-quality student accommodation around the country but particularly in Coventry. We look forward to working with the Cassidy Group to add to this portfolio and create a fantastic new facility for students and local residents alike.”
