** For the avoidance of doubt, this is not the site on the cityside of Jamaica Street being developed by Pinnacle. That thread can be found here - http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=1821680 **
This thread is for a site in the Baltic Triangle, bounded by Norfolk Street, Watkinson Street, and Simpson Street. The site is cleared, and is currently being used to store materials for the nearby Artesian House development. As that development nears completion, it looks likely work on this site may commence soon.
The development is student flats-led, but with a view to achieving a mix of student types, including both under and post graduates, as well as young professionals. Ground floor activity will also be provided by the 12 office spaces.
This is the first part of a two phase development, with a planning application submitted in March to develop the site immediately opposite on Simpson Street to provide a 9 storey building with 100 studio apartments. It is envisaged that the residents of the Phase 2 development will be able to use the facilities of the Phase 1 development, adding to the amount of street activity as people come and go. The Phase 2 development has its own thread here - http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=1826322
From the Planning Explorer -
The applicant is listed as Baltic Developments Ltd, however we know the developer is actually the Elliot Group, also known as Lawless, who are also behind Artesian House, as well as the Park Lane/Heap's Rice Mill, and Wolstenholme Square plans. Nothing should be read into Elliot Group or Lawless not being named as an applicant, as it is not unusual for developers to use different applicant names for different developments.
Youtube video, aimed at investors, but good to see what the development will look like inside and out -
How the site looks today (excuse the sun glare) -
