Yesterday, the 12-storey multi-purpose development was granted approval by the board
The chair of the Planning Committee says while he isn't happy with parts of the Lord Street Development plans, he thinks it's 'a great scheme' overall.
Yesterday, the 12-storey multi-purpose development was given the go-ahead by the board.
As part of the approval, it was agreed that 'commuted sums' to affordable housing and public open spaces will be capped at £1.1 million and £473,000 respectively.
Rob Callister says the redevelopment of the site after 20 years would replace 'an eyesore' in the capital with economic activities, jobs and a renewed sense of pride:
Work underway to remove asbestos from former Golf Links Hotel
Police raise welfare concerns about vehicle occupant
New EV charging points planned for Island's ports
Campaigners against offshore windfarm proposals hit out at 'undemocratic' process
