Paintworks Phase III Development Proposals Public Consultation – July 2013 Comments Form
Thank you for viewing this exhibition which shows detailed proposals for Phase III of Paintworks on the Bath Road in Bristol.
In December 2012 outline planning consent was granted to Verve Properties for Phase III of Paintworks involving the demolition of most of the buildings on the eastern half of the site to allow for a new employment led, mixed-use regeneration scheme.
The outline consent comprises retention of the Endemol buildings and a new development providing around 6,700 m² of new employment and commercial floorspace, 11 live/work units and 210 houses and apartments. These buildings would all be built on a large pedestrianised podium with a semi-basement car park and cycle storage below creating a pedestrian friendly environment. The proposed masterplan features a new diagonal pedestrian route which cuts across the site, linking the Paintworks development with Sparke Evans Park. A series of inter-linked courtyard spaces punctuate this route with a large central plaza creating a focus for the development. Design cues have been taken from the existing Paintworks development enabling the new proposals to relate comfortably with its surroundings.
The project team is interested to hear any comments or suggestions you may have about these proposals before a full planning application is submitted to Bristol City Council in August.
