Newark residents are excited to see an "eyesore" transform into new apartments but have concerns over where the new inhabitants will park. JYD Holdings have been given the go ahead to transform a former Victorian wool warehouse on Victoria Street into 39 residential units.
In addition to the units there will also be a yoga studio, co-working spaces, electrical charging points and a courtyard. The building has an interesting history, starting as a wool warehouse and became pine manufacturer and then bricklaying workshop and training school before becoming vacant.
This is the first project that JYD Holdings has embarked on in Newark, and they are targeting the units primarily at young professionals. Residents are looking forward to seeing something being done with the building, but do have concerns about where potential residents would park as Victoria Street is a main road.
