The Proposals
- Approximately 310 high-quality apartments. A mix of studio, 1,2, and 3 beds will be available to meet the needs of Leeds’ growing population
- Designed to reflect the site and surrounding area’s industrial heritage. Design features and materials will complement the existing creative neighbourhood, and buildings will be mill-like in appearance, using predominantly red brick
- Shared amenity space (both inside and outdoors) within the development will allow residents to meet, work and relax
- Landscaped grounds will create space for residents to unwind outdoors
- The development is situated in a highly sustainable location – in between the city centre and St James’s University Hospital, walkable from the city’s bus and train stations
Key Benefits of the Proposals
- The existing buildings on the site no longer meet the needs of modern businesses; regeneration of the site will bring forward a development to invest further in the ongoing transformation of this part of the city
- Apartments in the development will offer real choice to those looking for affordable, quality accommodation close the city centre and St James’s University Hospital
- Rental contracts will be flexible in order to offer a better deal to those traditionally left behind by the housing market
- The development will be sustainable and deliver renewable energy on site through solar power opportunities
- Jobs will be created during the construction and through the local supply chain
