Sladen Estates Peveril Securities Peel Land Office Unity Square Nottingham

A major new development in a key location in Nottingham City Centre is on the cards – with developers Sladen Estates and Peveril Securities today revealing plans. The potential development proposed the creation of two buildings between 10-13 storeys high.

Sladen Estates, who’re set to speak at our West Midlands Development Plans Conference, have submitted a planning application to Nottingham City Council alongside Peveril Securities. The plans highlight 667,599sq ft of office space situated in a prime locate on Queensbridge Road – opposite the railway station and main tram stops.

The site is part of a wider £250m Southern Gateway project to transform the area to the South of the City Centre.

Ralph Jones, Managing Director of Peveril Securities, said: ”There is significant long-term investment in this area of the city. Nottingham railway station was the catalyst and coming up it Intu Broadmarsh’s forthcoming redevelopment along with other significant schemes expected over the next couple of years. It is an exciting time for Nottingham with many significant schemes on the horizon and cranes expected on the Unity Square site in the next 12 months. Looking ahead, the occupiers of Unity Square will be at the heart of this regenerated area of Nottingham, allowing them to take advantage of the multitude of local facilities and excellent transport links.”

Nick Sladen, Chief Executive of Sladen Estates – who’re speaking at our event in Birmingham this December, said: ”The City Council has been proactive in supporting the scheme which has generated strong interest from a number of office occupiers. Now that the existing buildings on site have been demolished, it is possible to see the huge potential for not just this site, but for the city as a whole. Unity Square is a major piece in the Southern Gateway jigsaw. Unfortunately, Nottingham has struggled to provide grade A office space over the last few years. This project will help to bridge that gap.

He added\; “With hundreds of people working in offices in Unity Square, we see ourselves as helping bring forward an entirely new business community – breathing new life into the southern gateway – and boosting the Nottingham economy. There will be significant job creation up to and during the build programme, and once complete local eateries and shops will benefit from the hundreds of people working there.”
