Does anyone know what's being built on Broad Street, just across from Granelli's sweet shop and the magic/fancy dress store?

View Full Version : What's the construction by city centre? papillon 05-02-2007, 08:24 Does anyone know what's being built on Broad Street, just across from Granelli's sweet shop and the magic/fancy dress store? neeeeeeeeeek 05-02-2007, 08:29 Flats.. Sheffield has a terrible shortage of flats! Expensive flats at that. :) papillon 05-02-2007, 08:39 Oh god, not another soulless, overpriced, miserly-spaced development. Like we don't have enough of them already. MysticKegs 05-02-2007, 08:46 Its student housing, and lots of it. That sweet shop owner should be rubbing his hands together. neeeeeeeeeek 05-02-2007, 09:21 I don't think it's for students but could be wrong. muddycoffee 05-02-2007, 09:33 It will consist of 3 blocks of 10, 9 and 7 storey apartments mainly for students. The original plans included a tram stop up in the sky next to the tram viaduct which would have been great.. more details and pictures here : - http://skyscrapercity.com (http://skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=311267) One of the best things about this development is that it will become a familiar gateway into the city as it stands right next door to the end of the parkway. You will be able to see it for a mile as you approach from the M1. |
