A number of businesses are being bulldozed in Nottingham to potentially make way for three huge new tower blocks. The proposals have been welcomed as strides are taken to transform an ageing site near Nottingham Railway Station.
ES Nottingham and Consarc Design has proposed to build three blocks at the junction of London Road and Queens Road on a site which is situated within the Nottingham Station Conservation Area. It was inhabited by a number of businesses such as United Carpets, used-car sellers NottinghamCar.com and Magpie Security, but work is already underway to clear the site and potentially replace them with hundreds of flats.
The Old Tracks pub once sat in the area before planning consent for its demolition was granted back in 2001. Following this a number of units were built and stood for a number of years.
