New student accommodation in London for 2016

Unite Group has won planning approval for the development of a new 1.4 acre student property site on Holloway Road in Islington, London. The property will consist of ~900 beds. The area was acquired from London Metropolitan University in 2013, subject to planning.

The project is planned to be developed by The London Student Accommodation Vehicle (LSAV), Unite's 50:50 joint venture with the Singaporean government's sovereign wealth fund. The new development is projected to be completed in summer '16
