Plans have been unveiled for a new apartment block on the site of a former pub in Stockport. Under the proposals, The George on the corner of the A6 Wellington Road North and Heaton Lane in the town centre would be demolished to make for a 15-storey tower.
The block would contain co-working spaces on the lower floors and a total of 72 apartments, each with a 'winter garden.' A winter garden is another term for an area that extends a living space out into the fresh air and are popular among new-build apartment buildings, sometimes referred to as sky gardens or roof gardens.
The site of the former boozer, which closed in 2017, faces the Merseyway shopping centre and sits next to the Beckwith House office building and the Stockport Travelodge.
