Construction firm completes 700 person accommodation in Wembley
An accommodation project that could house nearly 700 people has completed construction.
Cole Waterhouse, which developed the student accommodation at First Way campus in Wembley, have installed the final module of the project.
Since August 2019, 438 pre-manufactured modules have been installed into the project, which is being delivered by Bowman + Kirkland.
Damian Flood, CEO of Cole Waterhouse, commented: “It is great that the final unit was able to be lifted into place in such a short space of time.
“We decided on a modular design to ensure swift installation with limited delays and to achieve the highest level of build quality possible.
“We are delighted that First Way Wembley is nearing completion and look forward to handing over to UCFB and UNITE by July.”
Brendan Flood, chairman of University Campus of Football Business (UCFB), added: “The First Way project represents a significant investment for UCFB in new facilities for both our students and staff within the Wembley Campus.
“We plan to invest further in an innovative fit out to provide exciting new degree programmes and a fabulous student experience.
“We are grateful for the hard work and expertise of the Cole Waterhouse team and Bowmer + Kirkland, and we look forward to moving in this summer.”
