Moorgarth Group has proposed a major residential development at its Broad Street Mall shopping and leisure complex in Reading.
The plans, submitted to Reading Borough Council, aim to create nearly 500 new homes above the existing centre in three towers at the southern side of Broad Street Mall and in two other residential blocks.
The scheme would also include affordable housing, landscaping improvements and new retail and food and beverage units.
If the scheme gains approval, works could start on the development in 2020.
The 400,000 sq ft shopping and leisure destination has undergone a comprehensive refurbishment since it was acquired by Moorgarth in 2015.
Broad Street Mall has signed several new lettings in recent months, including a lease renewal by New Look and a 9,000 sq ft letting to Iceland.
It records 7m visitors annually.
Gary Lewis, managing director of Moorgarth, said: “Our vision for Broad Street Mall is for an exciting and vibrant destination that will provide one of the finest urban living environments outside the capital.”
