Construction News Image
Construction work has commenced a new £18 million student accommodation facility in Nottingham.

Former school buildings and a car dealership on Talbot Street will be demolished and replaced with a 331-bed development along with communal areas and outdoor space.

nmcn, formerly North Midland Construction, is delivering the project on behalf of developer RedOak.

Nick Banks, operations director at nmcn, said: "We have a strong track record in the residential sector and this distinctive new development adds to our growing student accommodation portfolio. It is fantastic to be helping RedOak Developments tackle the growing demand for student housing in Nottingham and our team has commenced works on this project which is due for completion next year."

Ria Lohse, senior architect at Franklin Ellis Architects and project-lead on the design of the new scheme, commented: "The Talbot Street scheme is one we are very passionate about as it is set in the Canning Circus conservation area, an important historic gateway into Nottingham and also our home base.

"This scheme will create a top-quality living environment for students, providing them with a cost-effective and stylish option in a fantastic area of the city, whilst also enhancing the local heritage of the area. We look forward to working closely with nmcn to bring the development to life." 

The new facility is scheduled for completion in April 2020.
