J3374 : Nos 48-52 York Street, Belfast - June 2016(2)
taken 8 years ago, near to Belfast, Co Antrim, Northern Ireland
Buildings on the north western side of York Street, near the corner of Frederick Street for which there is the following planning permission (2 October 2017) “LA04/2016/1213/RM Demolition of existing buildings and erection of 11 storey building comprising of 3 no. ground floor retail units, 307 studios for use as purpose built managed student accommodation with associated communal and amenity facilities, including gym and all associated site and access works. 48-52 York Street Belfast BT15 1AS”.The photographs submitted by me appear as a matter of geographical and historical record only. I have no connection with the development and cannot enter into correspondence.
A University of Ulster press release dated 7 March 2013, commenting on the proposed new Belfast campus at York Street Link contained the following: “This will mean around 14,000 students and 1,500 staff will occupy the building over the course of a week . . . . . The University has been working with partners in government on a Community Business Opportunities Plan which will capture these benefits for the advantage of the surrounding communities”.
The appearance of Royal Avenue and York Street and the types of businesses accommodated there (and surrounding streets) seems likely to change in line with developments as the University becomes established.
This is a collection of photographs of the area “for the record”.
