Proposal 1.1. The proposed development seeks complete demolition of all buildings on the application site and the erection of a 4-8 storey development providing 130 no. residential apartments, car parking and associated development. Demolition 1.2. This roughly L shaped application site would see demolition of the existing now dilapidated Steiner building which is 3 storeys and occupies the corner of Alcester Street and Bradford Street, as well as other single and double height warehouse buildings. The existing locally listed building located at the corner of Alcester Street and Green Street and the adjacent industrial building do not form part of the application site. Overview of the Proposed Replacement Development 1.3. It is proposed to erect a wholly residential apartment scheme that would front Bradford, Alcester and Green Streets with a roughly ‘L’ shaped block running along the site’s western and southern boundaries and part of the east boundary. 1.4. A total of 40 on-site parking spaces are proposed (31%) adjacent to the vehicular entrance off Green Street, within the courtyard, on the western boundary and underneath the western wing of the building. 1.5. Overall the proposed development would provide 130 apartments with the following breakdown: Page 1 of 18 Apartment Type Number Percentage Min. Size Max. Size 1 bedroom 54 42% 45sqm 61sqm 2 bedroom 76 58% 64sqm 80sqm 1.6. During the course of determination officers have secured amendments to the design, massing, number and mix of dwellings proposed. Initially 148 apartments were proposed and the mix comprised 61% one bedroom apartments and 39% two bedroom apartments. Detailed Proposals 1.7. The Bradford Street frontage would comprise 7 storeys on the western end, reducing to five storeys and marking the corner with an 8 storey building. As the building would turn the corner onto Alcester Street the height is reduced to 4 storeys next to the locally listed building. Green Street would be 5 storeys high. The scheme would be entirely single aspect onto either the surrounding roads or the internal courtyard area. Side elevations onto adjoining sites would be blank. Vehicular access is proposed from Green Street. 1.8. A bin store is proposed on Green Street, 136 cycle spaces at lower ground floor level adjacent to the rear elevation of the industrial unit (which is excluded from the application site). Two plant rooms are proposed; one to the rear of the ground floor apartments on Alcester Street and the other on Green Street adjacent to the entrance lobby. 1.9. Architecturally, the proposed building would be flat roofed and the elevations are broken up into two distinct designs. The ‘book ends’ on Bradford Street and the elevation fronting Green Street are framed in a contrasting blue brick surround. At the upper two levels, façade treatment includes an aluminium rain screen cladding system finished in metallic green/blue (Spectra two tone) along with textured white stone fins. Beneath the upper two floors the ‘book ends’ give way to a lighter blue brickwork façade, detailed to include contrasting horizontal brick banding. 1.10. This palate of lighter blue brickwork, framed within contrasting blue brick piers and horizontal banding continues within the central section on Bradford Street, Alcester Street elevation and the central courtyard facing elevations. Street fronting elevations are also designed to include a mix of full, externally hung balconies, and glass Juliet balconies. Within the courtyard elevations, glass Juliet balconies alone are adopted. 1.11. Window and door reveals are framed within deep recesses, with further contrasting metal cladding frames set inside the reveal. Dark grey metal window casements are also proposed to all openings. 1.12. The ground floor of Bradford Street and Alcester Street would be set back approximately 2m from the street to allow defensible space to the front of the ground floor residential units. The building would also be set back on Green Street on the lower ground floor level to ensure the balconies above would not overhang the public highway. Boundary treatment on all 3 elevations would consist of a variety of metal railings on masonary walls, some of which are dwarf walls. 1.13. All the residential units on Alcester Street would be accessed from the street whilst access to the apartments on Bradford Street would be from an internal lobby. More broadly, access to the apartments is largely provided via two entrance lobbies; one Page 2 of 18 on Bradford Street, the other on Green Street, both at lower ground floor level. A third entrance is proposed at ground floor level on Alcester Street. In addition, there is a resident access to the courtyard adjacent to the vehicular access on Green Street. 1.14. The highest block is 8 storeys and marks the corner at Bradford Street and Alcester Street and the height has been guided by that of the Abacus residential scheme on the opposite side of Alcester Street. A roof garden is proposed on top of the 5 storey element on Bradford Street and would be accessed from the circulation corridor. The roof garden would be surrounded by a 1.1m high parapet. 1.15. This application is accompanied by detailed plans; a Planning Statement; Design and Access Statement; Noise Assessment; Flood Risk Assessment and Sustainable Drainage Report; Transport Assessment, Preliminary Energy Strategy and Viability Assessment. 1.16. EIA screening Opinion was undertaken by the Local Authority and it was confirmed that an EIA is not required. 1.17. Link to Documents 2. Site & Surroundings 2.1. The application site, totalling 0.3ha is roughly ‘L’ in shape and has frontages onto Bradford, Alcester and Green Streets. The site contains a number of dilapidated buildings namely the 3 storey Steiner building which occupies the corner of Alcester Street and Bradford Street albeit set back on the Alcester Street boundary. It is understood the 1960s factory building was used for the manufacturing of motor vehicle components, however it has been vacant for a number of years and has fallen into a poor state.
