A consortium of three companies has been selected to develop Bangor University’s residential site at St Mary’s – Cityheart Ltd who are leading the project, Vinci Construction UK Ltd, and CRM Ltd. Investment of over £30million will bring new life to a site that has largely been disused for many years.
The design for the new development has been led by FaulknerBrowns Architects who are specialists in the higher education sector.
The University’s aim is to respond to demand from second and third year students who want to live in halls, whilst also allowing it to close the older halls on the Normal site. This new development of 600 rooms will allow the University to close 200 rooms built in the 1960’s on the Normal site.
