Project Overview:
The project is being built at the old Coca Cola bottling site and it is one of the largest student accommodation developments in Ireland. The 10-storey development has a gross floor area of approximately 19,267 sq m. and includes an onsite gym, common networking spaces, cycle storage, studio space and a sky lounge with views of the River Lee.
Once complete the accommodation scheme will serve students at the University College Cork, the city’s University Hospital and the Cork Institute of Technology. The rooms will include en-suite toilets and showers, premium furnishings, kitchenettes with burners, appliances, a fridge and countertop and cabinet space.
The new Novel Student community will also include a range of shared amenities – such as study and meeting rooms, tea lounges, gym and relaxation rooms and breakfast bars with complimentary coffee. There will be shared spaces, rooftop amenities, an outdoor courtyard and bike storage.
EDC Scope of Works:
EDC is provided technical advisory services on construction status and progress throughout the project. Our scope includes delivering detailed commissioning reports and carrying out system demonstrations in the lead-up to practical completion, ensuring full operational readiness and compliance before handover.
