🚀 Big news for Cardiff! The city’s skyline is about to change with the green light for a new 30-storey skyscraper at the site of the old Harlech Court. Once finished, this towering block will be one of Wales’ tallest buildings, bringing 340 much-needed flats to the city centre.👷♂️
🏢 The new tower is set to offer 279 one-bed units and 61 two-bed units, alongside 536 square metres of communal spaces like a co-working area, gym, and a stunning sky lounge. Residents can also enjoy communal gardens and roof terraces on the 20th and 21st floors.
🚴 While the design has been met with mixed reviews, concerns about cycle storage and waste management are being addressed. The council aims to balance these aspects, ensuring a functional, vibrant addition to Cardiff’s landscape.
📏 Standing taller than Cardiff’s current tallest residential building, this project is sure to make a mark. Meanwhile, plans are already in place for an even taller 50-storey building on Wood Street, promising over 500 apartments!
🧐 Love it or hate it, this new skyscraper is sure to stir up buzz and play a key role in Cardiff’s ongoing development, offering modern living spaces and revitalising the area.
