Glenbrook has submitted plans for the development of £150m build-to-rent scheme in Leeds.
The move follows the acquisition of the site at 87-89 Kirkstall Road on the bank of River Aire from Marshalls CDP earlier this year. The proposals include the development of 618 flats set across five buildings, over 10,000 sq ft of amenity space, co-working hub and gym, 3,800 sq ft of commercial space and 6,000 sq ft of private external terraces.
If approved, Glenbrook is looking to appoint a contractor in the summer with expectations to start on site in the third quarter of 2022.
The project was designed by Carey Jones Chapman Tolcher with re-form advising as landscape architects. Avison Young acted as planning consultant and the wider project team includes Curtins, Abacus Cost Management, Crookes Walker Consulting and GIA.
Daniel Roberts, senior development manager at Glenbrook, said: “Located on the waterfront, the site’s potential from a public realm perspective is huge and is an area we have focused on in our proposals with over 50% of the site dedicated to landscape, including a new riverside park, cycle ways and access to the waterfront.”
