\"\"Reaching a height of 72m, Winvic Construction has erected two tower cranes<\/a> that will reside in Coventry\u2019s city-centre skyline for the rest of the year as it continues to construct UNINN Parkside Development Ltd\u2019s luxury student accommodation<\/a> scheme.<\/p>\n

The steel-framed<\/a> project will offer 502 ensuite rooms that will be a mix of studio and cluster bedrooms constructed within three towers of six-storeys, 13-storeys and 19-storeys.<\/p>\n

To celebrate the erection of the cranes and the start of construction<\/a>, Coventry\u2019s new flag \u2013 designed in celebration of the 2021 UK City of Culture \u2013 has been flown for the first time by being placed on one of the cranes.<\/p>\n

Prior to the cranes arriving on site, piling for the 5m-deep basement had been completed. The subterranean area will provide space for a gym, laundry, cinema<\/a>, karaoke room and communal lounge for tenants as well as a plant room\/energy centre.<\/p>\n

Mark Jones, Winvic\u2019s Director of Multi-room, commented: \u201cWe have been working with UNINN Parkside Development, a new client for Winvic, for the last 6 months, refining the design<\/a> and solving engineering challenges. The arrival of the tower cranes on site marks an important milestone on our programme when the people of Coventry can begin to watch this six, 13 and 19-storey development really take shape.\u201d<\/p>\n

Andrew Jamieson, Managing Director of UNINN Parkside Development, added: \u201cWinvic has been making excellent progress on Parkside and their knowledge of city-centre, high-rise developments is evident. Already there is a buzz about Coventry\u2019s next luxury student accommodation provision and we look forward to welcoming students into their new rooms in summer 2020. Together with Winvic, we\u2019re confident to exceed expectations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Caunton Engineering has been appointed to fabricate<\/a>, supply and erect<\/a> the project\u2019s steelwork.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
