Overview
Cannon Park Shopping Centre, Coventry is located to the South-West of Coventry City Centre in an affluent area of the city and within the immediate proximity of the extensive University of Warwick Campus and Science Park.
MRP identified the potential offered by both the shopping centre through a process of refurbishment and asset management enhancements, together with the almost 15 acres of land upon which the centre sits. The refurbishment works commenced in summer 2018 and completed in early 2019 which has greatly improved the customer experience and retail occupier offerings.
In addition to the mall enhancements, construction is underway for a purpose built student accommodation scheme to comprise of 780 student beds with a 400-space multi storey car park on lands to the west of the shopping centre. The development includes very extensive public realm and landscaping enhancements, which also provide improvements to the existing natural wildlife habitat.
The student accommodation development will deliver new high-quality architecture that responds positively and responsibly to the increasing demand for managed student housing. It will provide a welcome alternative to multiple occupancy by students in traditional family housing.
