We’re proud to announce that Practical Completion of the Great George Street Purpose-Built Student Accommodation (PBSA) in Leeds was successfully achieved in September 2025.

Pareto Projects acted as Project Manager, Employer’s Agent, and Cost Manager, supporting  from planning through to delivery. The scheme provides 54 high-quality student bedrooms, alongside a communal lounge, student workspace, and podcast room – designed to promote community and creativity.

Set within a Grade II listed building, the project required a careful balance between heritage preservation and modern sustainability. The design incorporates district heating and PV panels, showcasing how energy efficiency and architectural legacy can coexist. Through close collaboration with the Leeds City Council Conservation Officer and key stakeholders, the building’s future has been thoughtfully secured.

At Pareto, we believe construction success goes beyond ticking boxes. It’s about leading with accountability, inspiring collaboration, and upholding the highest standards of excellence. This project is a testament to that ethos.

We’re honoured to have played a role in transforming this historic landmark and look forward to the positive impact it will bring to students and the wider community.
