Plans for a huge new tower block in the centre of Cardiff have been approved. The 113m-high building proposed for land in Wood Street will consist mainly of apartments.
The ground floor of the tower has been earmarked for commercial space and a separate pavilion building will also be constructed as part of the wider development. This pavilion building could be used as a cafe or restaurant and will contain a spill-out area for tables and chairs.
At a Cardiff Council planning committee meeting on Thursday, June 8, councillors were largely in favour of the development. Committee member Cllr Garry Hunt said the tower and pavilion could play a vital part in improving Central Square.
