Mapperley resident hope the development of a restaurant and bar at the site of a former Lloyds TSB bank can help it become a popular area for dining establishments. Plans for the £2.25million transformation have been granted, with proposals for the old bank in Plains Road, which closed during the pandemic, also including four apartments, four offices and retail space.
Hillcrest Properties, a third-generation family property company based in Nottingham, successfully secured planning consent for the site.
Work is set to start on the development over the coming weeks and the units will be available to rent later this year. Landa Associates has been instructed to find an operator for the new restaurant, as well as tenants for the accompanying first-floor offices and ground-floor retail space.
