Developers see contrasting fortunes in planning bids for student accommodation
Dublin City Council has refused planning permission to Kesteven Ltd to construct a mixed-use development comprising of a seven-storey block at Aungier St that contains 300 en suite student accommodation bedrooms and five retail outlets.
The refusal coincides with Hattington Student Housing Ltd getting the green light to proceed with its plans to construct a 296-bed student accommodation at Thomas St in Dublin after an appeal lodged with Bord Pleanála against the development was withdrawn.
