Nixon Property has received planning permission for a 246-unit student accommodation development on St James’ Boulevard in Newcastle city centre.
The 10-storey building designed by TP Bennett totals 89,900 sq ft, comprising a mix of studios and cluster apartments of three, five and six bedrooms.
Open areas and an improved public realm will be provided along the St James’ Boulevard frontage and a terrace area on the first floor overlooking the open space to the rear. There is also a gym on the first floor alongside a cinema room, study room and laundry.
The scheme forms part of the Science Central masterplan, a 24-acre city-centre development.
