Max Bielby, chief operating officer for Vita Student, said: “We are delighted to be reaching the final stages of construction for this exciting new Vita Student residence in Belfast, the topping out marks a significant moment in the building’s construction and shows great progress to date. The new development will raise standards for student living within the city, and we are excited to see it come to fruition with MRP at the helm as we ready ourselves for new intake of students at the start of the academic year in September.”
