At CPC we recently negotiated the acquisition of a 1.75 Acre site on Brunswick Street and Grangegorman for our retained clients Global Student accommodation.   This is the second large site acquisition in Dublin by GSA and follows  the recent grant of planning permission for a 400 bed student scheme on a site on Mill Street In Dublin 8.   The Brunswicke Street site is extremely well located directly adjacent to the new Dublin Institute of Technology Campus at Grangegorman and within a few minutes walk of the Smithfield Luas Stop.  It will also be close to the new Luas Intercity line which will open at Broadstone in 2017.  GSA expect to lodge a planning application for c 550 bedrooms over extensive ground floor retail accommodation in Novemeberof this year. 

As part of our specialist development role our clients Global Student Accommodation have just received a Decision to Grant Planning Permission for a 400 bedroom student housing scheme with some commercial accommodation at Mill Street Dublin 8.   The development will help address the sever under supply of student accommodation in Dublin.  The site is ideally positioned within 20 minutes walk of Trinity College and is ideally accessible to numerous bus routes.  The development will entail a €40 million investment in the Newmarket / Blackpitts area and in addition to the student housing will also include the restoration of a listed town house at No 10 Mill Street and the development of a free standing office block.
