Shoppers and students in Nottingham think plans for 293-bed student flats 'will create life' in the city centre. It comes as Halfords Auto Centre and Archer Accident Group on Huntingdon Street have been demolished to make way for a new seven-storey building.
The student flats will be built on this site and on land at the back of the demolished dwellings after work started preparing the land months ago. Plans were granted permission by Nottingham City Council on January 4.
The new building will be four storeys behind a retained façade, five storeys along the Howard Street frontage and then rise to seven over the former Halfords unit on the Huntingdon Street and Perth Street frontages. And people in Nottingham say they are keen for the work to be finished.
