A render we did of an eight level 316 room student accommodation building we are currently working on for a great site in central city Christchurch for Huadu Developments. Piling is just starting on site. Very excited to watch this emerge over the coming year or so. This will be a great asset for our city bringing in student life and vitality to go along with the many other great projects still under construction and completed post-quake.
