Plans submitted to convert Nottingham office building into student scheme

Plans to convert a Nottingham office building into student accommodation have been submitted to the City Council.

The proposals for Pearl Assurance House on Friar Lane would see 140 bedrooms created on the 2nd to 9th floors of the building.

There will be no change to the retail units at lower ground floor and upper ground floor levels or to the residential apartments at first floor level.

Pearl House was constructed in 1962, designed by architects Evans, Cartwright & Woollatt. The building consists of a 2-3 storey podium which fronts onto Friar Lane and Wheeler Gate, with an eight storey tower which is set back from Wheeler Gate.

The 2-3 storey podium accommodates retail units, a car park and residential units.

The application follows approval in March 2017 for the conversion of the 2nd to 9th floors into residential apartments.
