Locals have expressed sadness after plans were proposed to knock down a garage to build apartments. The Vehicle Procurements Ltd garage on Westdale Lane in Mapperley would be turned into ten apartments under new proposals.
Ten apartments are planned for the site along with eight two-bedroom and two one-bedroom properties. There are also plans for 11 car parking spaces and ten cycle spaces. Vehicle Procurements Ltd still currently operates out of the site, with documents indicating that staff would be moved another site on Westdale Lane.
Locals said that they were saddened and concerned about the plans for the demolition. Jon Crawley, 68, who is retired and lives in Mapperley, said he would be sad to see the garage go if plans were approved. "I would be sorry to see it go, it has been here forever.
