DEVELOPMENT company McAleer & Rushe has been given planning permission by Belfast City Council to develop a 740-bed scheme on College Avenue.
This follows the company being granted planning permission by the council earlier this year to develop 476 student bedrooms in McClintock Street. The Tyrone and London based developer will deliver the purpose-built student accommodation for Queen’s University Belfast, with a completion date of summer 2018.
Queen’s Vice-Chancellor Prof Patrick Johnston said: “As an anchor institution in the city, this substantial investment again demonstrates the commitment of Queen’s to the development of Belfast as a learning city.”
