Olympian Homes has secured Gateway 2 approval for its Haymarket development in Bristol, which will deliver 442 PBSA (purpose-built student accommodation) and 150 co-living units across two towers of 28 and 18 storeys, in partnership with Cain.

The approval follows a highly collaborative process involving the project’s design team, which was supported by the expertise of Olympian Homes’ newly formed innovation unit.
