PLANS have been revealed for a 30-storey tower and three other buildings with gardens on their roofs to be built on a derelict piece of land in Plymouth city centre.
Developers envisage buildings containing 300 flats and a hotel on the 1.5-acre former ITV television studios at Derry’s Cross,
The proposed development next to The Athenaeum and the Saltwater Pace student flats, to be called Crescent Green, would also have commercial space in what is being described as an “exciting, new, mixed-use urban quarter”.
The plan is for four buildings, although one is linked to the domineering 30-floor skyscraper by a single core. Two standalone buildings, facing on to The Crescent, would be about eight to 10 floors in height.
The plans also include the reinstatement of a “historic route” between Millbay and the city centre, “regreening” the area with a “pocket park”.
Mark Borg, director of private investment company SLB Investments (Plymouth) Ltd, said that a public consultation will take place at The Athenaeum on Friday, May 31.
The company then expects plans to be submitted in the autumn, with work beginning by the end of 2025, subject to the plans being approved.
