Birmingham developer Court Collaboration has been granted planning consent for a 48-storey build-to-rent scheme in Birmingham’s Digbeth.
EG first revealed the plans to bring forward the £125m development, comprising 484 flats on the site of the former Irish Centre in the Deritend neighbourhood, last year.
It includes 10,000 sq ft of amenity space, with a gym, cinema, sky lounge and co-working space, and 3% on-site affordable housing.
The scheme from Court and Tony Gallagher neighbours the £350m Stone Yard development. Construction is expected later this year.
Alex Neale, chief executive at Court Collaboration, said: “This development will provide high quality, contemporary city living in a prime location, complementing the surrounding area and numerous high-rise developments coming forward in Digbeth, including Connaught Square, Lunar Rise and our own Stone Yard.”
