Plans revealed for new 'high quality' apartment block - but none of them will be 'affordable'
A developer has revealed plans to build a ‘distinctive and high quality’ apartment block on the site of a former car repair garage in Stockport town centre. New proposals would see a six-storey building built on the Old Churchgate Autos site - at the corner of Churchgate and Wellington Street. The garage buildings would be demolished to make way for 13 new flats, which would all be one-bedroom, apart from a pair of larger duplexes boasting two and three bedrooms respectively. The scheme includes cycle parking as well as lobby and communal terraces, with the two duplex units also having their own private tenants’ spaces.Lodged by Platinum Pearl Investments, it has emerged as the second phase of a project the developer already has in the pipeline for neighbouring Aspley Street. Papers submitted with the application say the scheme would ‘positively improve the character and quality of the area’ - including the removal of ‘poor quality buildings’ that currently harm the Market and Underbanks conservation area.
