Some new images were made available to FutureBelfast. Post above updated.


I know it's brick and some are getting bored of it as a material of choice for a lot of new buildings in Belfast but I really like the design, looks like it'll be of excellent quality.

Hopefully the site(s) to the left will see some new development as a result of the transformation this area is about to undergo

 

[Not Tall Enough]

Agreed, I actually think it looks class. I just wish they would hurry up and start with the building. I think the whole area will be amazing once they new apartments are up and the final phase off the University Campus is completed.

Looks good to me too. I think there will be enough variation of red brick and white/cream brick buildings in the area once all are complete.

Although with all of these proposals, there must be approximately 14 billion student rooms in the planning queue lol.

Application approved

Demolition of Philip House has commenced.

Very much depends on the quality of materials used, this one. It's still open whether the folks behind all the applications around the university have the intention to match the quality of finish of the university itself, we'll start to get indications soon I guess.

Looks like there will be a planning submission soon for an extension to this. It's more of the same, but will fill in a corner at the back of the site.
