Global Student Accommodation Group (GSA) and Harrison Street have launched a joint venture to acquire and refurbish The Curve, a 350-bed purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) in central London.
“London is one of the most attractive destinations in Europe for university students, yet the city continues to suffer from a significant undersupply of PBSA given constraints around new property construction and other barriers to entry,” said Rob Mathias, senior managing director and head of international business for Harrison Street. “We are excited to continue to build upon our successful partnership with GSA, a best-in-class partner in the student accommodation sector, to identify and provide London-based students with access to well-appointed, modern, high-quality housing options. The Curve meets all our criteria when selecting sites for PBSA given its accessibility to multiple university campuses, cen
