The site is within walking distance of the University of Cape Town and the new accommodation is specifically targeted at students enrolled at the university.
The project, worth R165m, is a good fit within with Aveng Grinaker-LTA's growing portfolio of coastal projects, some of the most significant being the Dr Pixley Ka Isaka Seme Memorial Hospital in KwaZulu-Natal, the extension to the Cape Town International Convention Centre and Aspen Pharmacare's manufacturing facility in Port Elizabeth.
The site was handed over to Aveng Grinaker-LTA's coastal division on 2 November 2015 and is scheduled to be completed by 15 November 2016.
