Hayaat Group was invited by the University of Bradford to develop The Green, an ambitious 1,026-bed on-campus sustainable residential complex. The result was the UK’s largest single-phase development of bed spaces ever attempted, completed in a record timeline of just 84 weeks following the purchase of more than 20 acres of land in Bradford City Centre by the group. The project was delivered on a very tight budget, and on time, despite an economic downturn that brought many of the UK’s major developments to a halt.
The Green remains a flagship project for the Hayaat Group, winning multiple awards for building sustainability, and, ensuring our status as a key player in the £750million development of the Learning Quarter in Bradford City Centre, in partnership with Bradford Council. Among its many accolades, The Green was the first multi-residential building in the UK to achieve the BREEAM sustainability assessor “outstanding” rating, as well as the body’s highest ever score of 95.05%. It is now seen as the benchmark in sustainable construction.
