Plans to redevelop a Bristol city centre park, and build new accommodation for hundreds of people on the site, have been submitted.
Developer Greystar is proposing to replace the NCP Car Park on Rupert Street with a new 400-space facility, and construct new residential buildings, offering 249 co-living and 328 student rooms. According to BusinessLive’s sister website BristolLive, the firm intends to demolish the existing car park, which helps serve central hospitals and the Broadmead shopping quarter, to make way for a series of tower blocks of up to 21-storeys high.
Among Greystar’s proposals for the development are a new ground floor community area for people to “eat, drink, create, shop and socialise”. Bosses at the company said its its regeneration plans for the “run-down” NCP building would help provide “affordable, flexible and convenient” rental homes for key-workers and young professionals
