Homes and an apartment block could be built around a 19-storey tower if plans are approved. The huge Burrows Court tower in Sneinton would be surrounded by 15 houses and a block of 41 flats, if the project receives the final go-ahead from Nottingham City Council's planning committee on May 18.
The development of the land around the 130-flat tower has been recommended for approval at the meeting. Nine houses facing Windmill Lane would be three-storeys high and have three bedrooms, as well as a lounge, kitchen and bathrooms.
Six of the houses would be two-storey with two bedrooms, with all houses having one off-street parking space. The new three-storey block of flats would be built on top of the existing 107-space car park, with twelve being two bed and twenty-nine being one bed.
