Stop worrying h19enp, there's about 800 Freshers places on BGP this year, and all the rooms get filled.

h19enp, have a look at www.broadgatepark.co.uk for some photos. Not many of the blocks though. A lot of them are new, and old ones have recently been demolished anyway so not many pics about of BGP.

Hi guys!
I have been given a room in a place called Cedars...
Does anyone know if this also is a part of the older blocks?

Reply 11

simeon

Cedars is an older, re-furbed block.

Maples is a new block.

On this map, the older blocks are White, the blaocks that were new last year are Light Grey, and the blocks that will be completed for 2006/7 say Phase 2 Construction.

More importantly, the Block that says Central Amenity Building is home to the Broadgate Bar. :wink:

Argh, I've applied to Broadgate for 1st, 2nd and 3rd choice so hopefully I should get it! But I haven't even heard from the Accomodation office yet...I might give them a call tomorrow!!
