Birmingham skyscraper will have no car parking and 464 bicycle spaces instead — plans have now been approved for the 48-storey city centre apartment building which will also have an on-site bike maintenance workshop cycling
Objections came from Historic England who believe it will harm the character of nearby heritage assets, namely St Chad's Cathedral and Birmingham Children's Hospital, once it is constructed next to the Holiday Inn near Snow Hill station.
The planning committee was reportedly split on prioritising the need for housing against potential viability concerns in the location. However, those in favour outnumbered those against the development, Brad Burridge of HUB saying it will be a"striking landmark for Birmingham" which will result in a"new public route that will open up this part of the city centre for pedestrians".
