A block of 353 flats has been given formal approval by council bosses after a years-long process to clean up the site and secure planning permission. The land, East Bay Close in Cardiff was the site of a shocking amount of fly tipping and took a huge effort to clear.
Developers CNM Estates first revealed plans for the 10-storey building in June 2022 which included 353 flats, split approximately 50/50 between one-bedroom and two-bedroom. The designs also include a "community garden" and parking spaces for 49 cars and 530 bikes.
The block will be located directly next to the A4234 Central Link flyover south of Cardiff city centre. It was formerly the home of the Stratstone Volvo dealership, and parts of the new development will be directly under the flyover.
