UK: A Student Roost proposal could see a new school building and PBSA project replacing a former office block in Coventry.
A subsidiary of Greystyar, which jointly owns Student Roost, has put forward plans to demolish a converted office in Westwood Business Park where the National Mathematics and Science College (NMSC) is based.
In its place would go a five-storey building for the college with classrooms, laboratories and a main hall for students. There would also be purpose built accommodation for 248 university students, including blocks directly behind the school and up to 21 metres high.
The project is the last part of The Oaks, a wider student accommodation scheme in the business park. New buildings providing more than 1,000 student rooms have already replaced offices on either side of the college’s site on Westwood Way. The blocks opened in 2019 and 2022 and are owned and managed by Student Roost.
