The 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.”

In December, Galliford Try’s Building business was appointed to new £10.5bn NHS Shared Business Services (SBS) framework.

The Building Business has been chosen in the national lot 4 for projects between £15m-£35m and in 11 regional lots of lot 3, for projects between £5-£15m.
