Joint venture partners Manchester Metropolitan University and Unite Students have appointed GRAHAM to deliver the redevelopment of the Cambridge Halls student campus.
The redevelopment will create 2,302 new student bedrooms and includes the demolition of the existing 1990s-era accommodation and the construction of two new multi-storey buildings across two phases, providing a mix of cluster apartments and studios alongside internal and external amenity spaces.
Designed by Cartwright Pickard architects, the development will also include ground floor commercial space and a new community health centre fronting Cambridge Street.
Stephen Van den Hoek, regional director at GRAHAM, said: “Cambridge Halls is a significant and complex regeneration project that will transform this part of the campus. We are proud to have been appointed to work with Manchester Metropolitan University and Unite Students to deliver high quality, sustainable accommodation that supports student wellbeing and long-term performance. Our team is looking forward to working collaboratively with all partners as the scheme moves forward.”
