We’re delighted to announce that a planning application was submitted in January 2020 for the latest Fuse-designed student accommodation project for market-leading developer Vita Group.

The striking building provides 496-studios, a ground floor of ‘hub space’, an external courtyard and is located in the heart of Coventry city centre: immediately adjacent to the listed ‘Quadrant’ building and only 300m from Coventry’s rail station. The prominent site looks over the stunning green open space of the neighbouring Greyfriars Green park and the Vita Student building is part of an emerging larger mixed-use development, the Friargate Masterplan, proposing over 3 million sqft of new development including residential, hotels and office buildings. The site is conveniently located for local amenities and the development will play an important part in the regeneration of this part of the historic city centre.

The project is currently out to tender and a start on site is anticipated in August this year. Final completion is planned for August 2022 – in advance of the beginning of the new academic year. We will keep you up to speed with progress as this amazing project evolves…
