Plans go in for Bristol city centre offices and urban park

Plans have been submitted for a landscaped urban park and offices in Bristol city centre.

Royal London Asset Management Property (RLAMP) wants to build two office buildings, centred around an urban park, bringing forward the redevelopment of the last two plots of the Distillery business district on the currently vacant site on Temple Way next to the Gardiner Haskins warehouse.

One of the proposed office blocks will be 14 storeys high, and the other will feature cafes and retail spaces on the ground floor.

David Morris, senior development director at Royal London Asset Management Property, said: “The Bristol economy needs new, sustainable best-in-class office space to meet the needs of modern businesses, boost economic growth and support the city’s social fabric.

“Community feedback on the plans tells us that people want Distillery to be a tranquil, welcoming business district. We’ve been working with Bristol-based architects AWW, local communities and other stakeholders to ensure these plans reflect that aspiration.”
