The proposals include the demolition of the existing bar / nightclub on Merrion Street in Leeds and the erection of a part 5, part 7, part 9 storey building containing 88 en-suite studios and associate common spaces, storage, plant and servicing. The building occupies a prime site in the up and coming Merrion Quarter of the city. The building massing and appearance has been sensitively designed to respond to the adjacent Grand Quarter Conservation Area. The estimated £12 million project underwent a successful pre-application process with Leeds City Council in spring 2021 and is currently in planning with a target opening date of summer 2023.
