Student housing is to be built at a prime location in Bristol city centre. Three buildings along College Green (26-29) are to be turned into 31 studio apartments for students, along with three commercial units on the ground floor.
The buildings were previously occupied by HSBC (26 College Green) while 27-29 College Green was last occupied by a music shop and offices. According to the planning documents, the units belong to Bristol City Council and have been empty since 2019.
The documents show the existing façade would be retained to "respect the unique and sensitive character of the area". They also state that the studio rooms will be between 16 and 26m2 and that cycle storage will be available on the ground floor, but there will be no car parking provided.
