Details
The former prison site is next to the Ladybellegate Street student accommodation development, due to open in September 2019. To the north of the site is the Quayside and Blackfriars Area. These are subject to a proposed residential led Local Development Order which will consequently alter the focus of the area away from commercial uses and regenerate the area in line with the Quays. The site is therefore well positioned in an area undergoing significant regeneration.
