Construction is underway at a new café and apartment complex in Nottingham. A new coffee shop and set of 74-bed student flats are under construction on the corner of Heathcoat Street and High Cross Street, Hockley.
The plan, which saw the demolition of the former Grains building, was given planning approval by Nottingham City Council in May 2021. The previous building was originally used for the manufacture of sewing machines and had been altered to provide ground floor retail space.
The development will be six floors when finished and would involve a variety of studios and cluster flats. It will be accessed from Heathcoat Street through a small lobby adjacent the coffee shop, comprising a reception desk, waiting area and management office.
