A property developer is planning to build a 46-storey block of flats and office buildings near Wellington Street in Leeds. The proposal includes 464 rented apartments and the demolition of existing buildings. The scheme will be discussed by the council's City Plans Panel.
A 46-storey block of flats , along with office buildings , is planned for land near Wellington Street , close to the former Yorkshire Post Newspapers site. Existing buildings would be demolished and a road repositioned to make way for the scheme by property developer McLaren. The tallest of the buildings would contain 464 rented apartments under the proposal, set to be discussed by the council’s City Plans Panel on Thursday .
“The development is simply too cramped, with too little outside breathing space.” Landscaping, tree planting and a lawn and play area are part of the proposal, the report said. One of the owners of the land also objected on the grounds that no agreement had been reached for the developer to buy the site. The report said the applicant was not required to own the land in order to seek planning permission but would need to acquire legal rights over the site to press ahead with the scheme.
