Office-to-student scheme gets green light

A former office block in Nottingham city centre is set to be turned into student accommodation after the council’s planning committee voted to wave through the proposal

Clinton View Limited has been granted planning permission for the scheme at 8 Clinton Terrace.

The development will include 15 apartments made up of one two-bed flat and 14 one-bed.

The 3,000 sq ft 8 Clinton Terrace was bought by Clinton View at the end of 2021 and the planning for the site has been through several iterations.

The scheme came up against significant opposition from Nottingham Civic Society, which said: “The current scheme still fails to preserve or enhance the character of either conservation area, as such should not be supported.”
