Butetown residents have made a plea for a new cafe to be included in a planned council flats scheme to replace the former Paddle Steamer.
The Paddle Steamer Cafe used to be on Loudon Square but last year permission was granted to Cardiff council’s housing department to knock it down and build a block of flats.
Now the council is planning another social housing scheme nearby, on Bute Street, with 45 apartments for elderly community living, comprising 35 one-bed flats and 10 two-bed flats.
