French student and young professional living platform UXCO has invested €35m to acquire two new student residences in the Paris region.

A new, privately run student residence is to be built directly opposite the university. The project company "The Student Park-Essen" from Halle an der Saale (Saxony-Anhalt) wants to build a complex with more than 300 residential units on the site of the former St. Mary's Church on the corner of Segeroth and Hans-Böckler-Straße (B224). Furnished 20-square-meter apartments are planned, which will be rented for 285 euros plus additional costs. "Because the project is funded by the Landesbank, this rent is definitely possible," says project manager Torsten Wacker.

The residences are student apartments located directly across from the National Gallery of Denmark. It’s an iconic building - not only due to its architecture and location but also because of its history as the former headquarters of the Danish State Railways (DSB).The DIS Foundation (Danish Institute for Study Abroad), which has purchased the property, intends to use it for the foundation's own students.

King Street Capital Management (“King Street”), a global investment management firm, and Alea Capital Partners (“Alea”), an alternative asset management firm, announced today, November 7, the creation of a joint venture with the aim of investing up to €375 million in new student accommodation, totaling more than 3,500 units.
