Watkins Jones Group are behind the plans that will see the underwhelming site transformed with builds ranging from five, nine, ten, 11, 13 & 30 storeys.

The tallest is to become a high-quality new marker building within the emerging Smithfield & Rea Valley Urban neighbourhood

Designed by Glenn Howells Architects, the scheme would feature 228 one-bed, 290 two-bed and 33 three-bed flats (1-5 persons), including 47 affordable rented apartments.

To boost vibrancy, each build will include flexible commercial spaces facing onto their respective streets, with the scheme also providing an array of amenities including a 24/7 concierge, wellbeing hub, lounges, workspaces, two landscaped courtyards, and roof gardens.

A new publicly accessible courtyard will be positioned at ground floor level, enabling a new and attractive public space, and creating a direct pedestrian route from Sherlock Street to the city centre and beyond.

There would be car parking for 36 vehicles – including 8 accessible, and 610 bicycle & motorcycle spaces, available.
