Plans to revive a derelict brownfield site in Nottingham with student accommodation have been submitted to the city council.
Cassidy Group are behind the proposals for 66-68 London Road, which occupies a prominent site within the Southside Regeneration Zone on the approach into the city centre.
The site is partially occupied by an empty three storey Victorian commercial building. The remainder of the site has been cleared.
Planning permission was previously granted on the application site in 2019 for the development of 150 residential apartments. The new development largely reflects the existing permission in respect of layout, scale, appearance, landscaping and access.
The new scheme however would provide 245 student bedspaces, across a mix of cluster bedrooms, studios, and accessible and premium studios. It would preserve the façade of the existing Victorian building and erect an adjoining part 3 part 8 storey building.
