Firm to build student housing
01 February 2017
Strategic Housing Group has partnered with Oman-based Sandan Development to set up a first-of-its-kind off-campus student housing complex in capital Muscat, said a report.
It is the Middle East, Asia and Africa partner of Asset Campus International, the US’s largest student-housing firm.
The $110-million complex, called the Myriad Muscat, will be located close to the Sultan Qaboos University and other reputed educational institutions, reported the Times of Oman.
The Italian architectural firm Mandressi has been roped in to design the buildings, which will have a capacity to host approximately 2,600 residents, said the report.
A total of 1,550 bedrooms have been carefully designed with comfortable furnishings, smart storage and other facilities. Work on the project starts this year and will be ready for occupation by September 2019.
