Imperial Apartments developer still to respond to review's recommendations

The developer behind a controversial office block conversion in South Bristol has not responded to the council after recommendations were made in a review, the Bristol Mayor has said.

Last month, a council review into Imperial Apartments found that the site is "suitable for many families with children" - but the cabinet member for housing delivery and homes admitted the situation required further improvement. Back in mid-February, Bristol Mayor Marvin Rees announced the council was to pause housing families with children there while a review was carried out as he admitted there are "some challenges" at the site.

This came after BristolLive reported on many concerns from residents at the former Parkview office complex in Hengrove and a request from the Bristol South MP to stop housing families with children at the development, with the Lib Dems then joining the call and one councillor urging the council "to take responsibility".
