17th November 2016
A brand new £11 million student complex on the site of the famous former Gatecrasher nightclub has officially opened its doors to tenants.
The first residents have moved in to Gatecrasher Apartments, after developers brought a new lease of life to the site, which now provides a top-quality home for students. The site, located on the corner of Arundel Street and Matilda Street in Sheffield city centre, has been transformed into luxury student accommodation, providing 243 beds, mostly in clusters of three, four and five beds, all en-suite.
