Planning Permission granted for Castle Park View in Bristol

Chapman Taylor is delighted to report that planning permission has been granted for the residential development designed by us at Castle Park View in Bristol city centre. Bristol City Council approved the Development at a meeting held yesterday (December 20^th).

Castle Park View will regenerate a brownfield site in a unique location, providing a high-quality residential development delivering some of the best dedicated Built-to-Rent homes in the city centre. It will provide 375 new homes, through a mixture of Private Rented Sector (PRS) and affordable housing. Car/bicycle spaces and leisure facilities are also provided, along with a 24/7 concierge reception.

A 26-storey tower (the tallest building in Bristol city centre) and a 10-storey block will book-end the main building, which fronts onto the park. The strong built form along the northern boundary will be reminiscent of the old castle wall which once stood on the site.

The scheme takes advantage of the site’s proximity to the city centre and nearby floating harbour to create a landscaped and desirable place to live within Bristol. The new complex, which transforms a vacant area of the city centre, will bring social and economic benefits to the city.

Chapman Taylor’s Bristol studio, acting for Linkcity/Bouygues UK, is responsible for the concept design for Castle Park View.
