Approval Recommended at 100 Broad Street

100 Broad Street goes to planning committee next week (1 February) – and it is recommended for approval.

100 Broad Street is a credible new development from Ropemaker Properties Ltd c/o Urban Vision Real Estate.

The modernist asymmetrical 33-storey tower (103m), designed by Howells, will introduce 294 build-to-rent apartments and duplexes to the site, with street-level commercial and an abundance of resident amenities.

134 one, 142 two & 18 three-bedroom apartments and duplexes (43-130 sqm; 1-6 persons) will be on offer, with 72% of homes being dual aspect, and nine 'affordable' homes.

The site famously already benefits from planning consent, with a 61-storey – which was quickly deemed unviable to build – approved back in 2019 under different ownership.

These credible plans, however, have been designed on the principles of viability, deliverability, and buildability, and will become one of the city's most sustainable (EPC B, Wired Score “Platinum”, and HQM 4.5*).

Residents will benefit from 833 sqm of external spaces at levels 1, 19 & 25, with communal terraces, private terraces, and shared gardens for growing.

There will also be 777 sqm of internal facilities such as workspaces, a gym and yoga studio, meeting rooms, reservable dining areas, a cinema and gaming room, and a 338-space cycle hub.

Bringing added vitality will be opportunities for shops, cafes, and restaurants at street level, plus a new c.£300K public realm with nineteen new trees (49 in total throughout the scheme) and outdoor seating.

100 Broad Street is expected to be constructed in pre-cast concrete with a series of staggered window openings, dressed in bronze-coloured metal and fittings, with chevron textured patterning.
