Plans submitted for Salford resi scheme
PLANS have been put forward for a mixed used scheme in Salford, which would see more than 300 new apartments built in four blocks around a communal landscaped green.
The bosses of Manchester and Leeds construction company Renaker are behind the Sillavan development in Salford, a 0.8 hectare scheme close to the Deva Centre, and fronting on to Trinity Way.
A detailed planning document compiled by Salford-based OMI Architects has been submitted to Salford City Council.
The current site, Sillavan Way Industrial Estate on William Street, Salford, is currently used for car parking. Previous applications for development on the site which gained approval from planners included a 26-storey tower comprisijng of 227 apartments.
The latest scheme put forward by Ancoats-based Sillavan Developments includes four blocks – the highest being 17-storeys – and 330sq m of A1/A2/B1 commercial space.
The commercial space, the developers envisage, would be taken by a retail operator for a convenience store, or let as office space.
The directors of Sillavan Developments are Daren Whitaker, owner of Renaker Construction and colleague Michael Shaw.
The Salford scheme comprises: 52 three bedroom apartments, 232 two bedroom apartments, three town houses and six two bed garden apartments.
The development also contains a total of 128 car parking spaces, 130 secure cycle spaces and five motorcycle spaces all within the secure perimeter of the site.
