Vita Student Gough Street - May 2024 Update

A new purpose-built student accommodation development is now rising on Gough Street and Suffolk Street Queensway

dndimg dndsrc="https://www.yourplaceyourspace.net/uploadedfiles/CGI%20Gough%20Street%20PBSA%202.png" />

Rising to 30 storeys, the 540-bed managed development is now making its presence known on the skyline.

The development sits on the eastern periphery of the Grade B locally listed Christadelphian Hall and the Grade II-listed Birmingham Hebrew Congregation (Singers Hill Synagogue) to the northwest.

The site will introduce two interlinked BREEAM 'Excellent' buildings of 10 & 30 storeys (approximately 92m, inc. ground floor and roof level), bringing an eclectic array of managed studios aimed at the top end of the student market.

Students will soon benefit from a concierge, dining rooms, a gym, social hub, games area, study spaces, an outdoor terrace, and spaces for 254 bicycles.

Harmonising the architectural heritage of the city and adding to a street in the process of being repaired, the development will be made up of red brick and glass, creating depth, texture, and visual interest on what is a primary route into the city.
