Coventry City Council, main contractor Winvic Construction and luxury accommodation providers CODE Student Accommodation have officially marked the completion of the steel frame of the city’s new tallest building.

At an event, they celebrated the handover of the first 315 bedrooms, gym, laundry and office facilities accommodated in one of the project’s four blocks. The first delivered phase of the project comprised one 14-storey block and, since being completed there are four interlocked blocks, of 17, 20 and 23 storeys, making it Coventry’s tallest building with panoramic views across the City.

Each of the self-contained student bedrooms contain a fully fitted kitchen, including fridge, freezer, microwave and integrated oven and hob, and a deluxe designer shower room; tenants will also feel safe in their new homes with the fob entrance system and the installation of CCTV.

A further 877 beds, totalling 1,192, a gym, cinema, open-plan communal spaces, landscaped rooftop terrace and three ground floor retail units will be handed over by August 2019, ready for a full house in the next academic year.

Caunton Engineering has fabricated, supplied and erected 1,800t of steel for the project.
