Plans have been lodged to add two floors to a vacant office building to create a 27-home block of flats close to Bolton town centre. The Quest Centre on Brownlow Way, Halliwell, is the subject of a planning application registered this week by developers Arms Group Ltd.
They propose extending the building by adding two additional floors above ground level. The extended building will then be fully refurbished and converted to create 27 self-contained apartments.
In 2020, the building, then owned by Bolton Council, was handed over to the charity Bolton Nice, (Neighbourhood Investment in Community Enterprise).
The charity provides a wide range of services for those who have fallen on hard times in the borough.
