Business owners have shared their hope that a row of shops will find "new life" through a potential refurbishment. Vacant shops between 82-90 Radford Road, Hyson Green would be refurbished to create two larger retail spaces and a three-storey extension would be created between 92 Radford Road and 2 Hawksley Road under new plans.
The new shops could be used for retail, the sale of food and drink, medical and financial services or as a takeaway. There would also be three student accommodation cluster flats above the row of shops, providing 28 bed spaces.
Local businesses were optimistic regarding the plans, which would refurbish a number of empty shops. Mehboob Sayanr, 65, who owns Munch Munch next door to the project, said it would bring life to the row of shops.
