A planned apartment complex in Birmingham city centre is set to increase in size after developers submitted revised designs for the scheme.
Developer Essex St (Properties) won consent in 2020 for the project at the corner of Essex Street and the A38 Bristol Street to build 154 apartments in a 28-storey block.
The company has now lodged new plans to bump it up by two storeys and add an extra 12 apartments.
The revised proposals comprise a mix of 76 one- and 89 two-bedroom units along with a single three-bedroom penthouse apartment.
Previously consented ground-floor commercial and amenity space for residents, including bike storage, a gym, roof garden and rooftop cinema, remain in the updated application.
The site is vacant and any buildings on it will be demolished.
Essex St (Properties) is led by the same team which developed the residential project The Bank on the corner of Sheepcote Street and Broad Street and which completed in 2020.
That scheme comprised two towers, of 22 and 33 storeys respectively, containing a total of 406 apartments.
