Neighbours have welcomed a plan for a closed down business to become housing. A vacant fabric warehouse in Basford Road, Basford, will be converted into 14 assisted living apartments if plans are approved by Nottingham City Council.
The building would be retained in its entirety with works undertaken to restore and re-instate original features to "promote residential community within the area". The developers have said there is sufficient parking to accommodate the prospective tenants and that nearby highways would be unaffected.
The former Baptist Sunday school has been vacant for at least three months, according to planning documents. Locals said they approved of the plan.
