New Student Housing Project Approved in Limerick

Limerick City and County Council approves new student housing project, set to replace two local businesses on New Road in Pennywell. The development, featuring 115 bed spaces and modern amenities, aims to alleviate pedestrian congestion near the Limerick School of Art and Design campus. This approval comes after previous rejections, reflecting the increasing demand for student accommodation in the area. Concurrently, the Technological University of the Shannon transforms an old laundry building into a creative hub, further boosting Limericks education scene.
