“Great idea and ideal position for the students living accomodation plus it might do some of the get rich quick landlords out of revenue and put more terraced housing back on the property ladder for first time buyers and back in to family dwellings .”

“If it means less students being stuck into inapropriate terraced housing then I'm all for it,its the perfect spot and has the bonus of removing another eyesore.”
