Almost 2,000 apartments are set to be built as part of plans to revamp a Birmingham city centre street which has been the subject of long-running redevelopment proposals.
Developer CEG wants to construct three separate tall towers containing around 1,800 units to rent on Smallbrook Queensway, along with ground-floor commercial and retail units and public squares.
It would involve the demolition of the existing curved block, called the Ringway Centre, which was designed by James Roberts, the man behind Birmingham's famous Rotunda - something which has left one local campaign group "horrified".
