Morgan Sindall Wins £10m Contract

Morgan Sindall has scooped a £10m scheme to develop new student accommodation in Norwich.

The design and build project for Alumno Developments involves the construction of a new nine-storey development, called All Saints Norwich, next to Norwich bus station.

The project also comprises the refurbishment and renovation of the adjacent building, 50 All Saints Green, a Grade II listed building.

The project is being delivered exclusively for the Norwich University of the Arts on a long-term agreement, helping to further enhance its status as a leading arts institution in the UK and assisting its long term growth aspirations.

Two existing buildings on the site will be demolished to make way for the new development and the Morgan Sindall team will also be creating a new public 'pocket park' with landscaping and plants.

The new development will feature 228 student bedrooms, the majority of which will be self-contained cluster flats with six en-suite bedrooms and a kitchen and lounge. The project team will also be constructing a range of self-contained studios. A management office and reception area will be built on the ground floor, while a common room and other associated amenities will also be developed for students to utilise.
