More than 240 new student bedrooms could be built on the site of a former roller rink in Liverpool city centre.
Proposals have been submitted to the local authority’s planning department for the construction of a new building on Mulberry Street on the site of a former car rental garage and Ritz Roller Rink, built in 1932. The currently vacant lot would be repurposed for a purpose built student development, with existing buildings demolished to make way.
The plans, submitted by McLaren Property, would seek to deliver a series of studios and four, five and six bed clusters with associated private amenity space and support facilities. The site is situated adjacent to several educational buildings belonging to the University of Liverpool, Liverpool John Moores University and the City of Liverpool College, known as the Knowledge Quarter.
