the summer of 2016. The project will utilise a mix of steel frame and

the area having completed The Ballet School in West Prince's Street in 2013. Located on the site of the former Willowbank
Primary School, 174 beds will be made available to the students of Glasgow's universities. The project, for Empiric Student
Property, started in April and will also be ready for the 2016/ 17 academic year.
