UK: Plans for a nine-storey hotel and aparthotel project on Regent Road in Salford have been submitted by Liverpool-based developer NW Build.
Acting on behalf of NW Build, which is headed by Kerrie Baker, Liverpool-based architect Fold2 has outlined proposals for the development, which is planned for a vacant site to the north of Salford‘s Regent Road on the junction with Windsor Street, near the M602. The office building currently on the site is no longer in use.
The proposals feature a mixed seven-and-nine storey building which will include 102 hotel rooms, 27 aparthotel suites, and 33 on-site car parking spaces.
There will be a curved façade to the building with a green wall at ground floor level, while a cantilevered section to the front will act as a “gateway” to the Regent Road area.
According to a planning statement filed with the application, the current office on the site “has no value for any new employment-related development” and added the new aparthotel would “generate both full and part-time jobs”.
