Planning permission for Wakefield civic offices
Permission for a new civic office development in Wakefield has been granted this week, promising £50 million woth of regeneration for the city.
The building is one of a number of projects scheduled by the Merchant Gate regeneration scheme that is hoping to change the face of West Yorkshire. The area is looking to develop a specially designed business quarter that will sit alongside retail space.
Artist’s impressions have been released outlining the design for the proposed build in the city centre, but the scheme has been issued reserved matters approval pending aesthetic design features, layout, scale and landscaping. Plans will be for a four-storey office building situated opposite the County Hall on Burton Street.
