A £56 million housing development in Warrington town centre is starting to dominate the skyline.
The construction of the apartment block and public multi-storey car park in Warrington town centre started early last year.
Planning chiefs approved a scheme to build the eight-storey block, with 362 homes, and a nine-storey 796-space car park on the site, on Winwick Street and John Street, in 2018.
Now the scheme, on Winwick Street and John Street is really emerging.
Sited on a former industrial site next to Warrington Central, it comprises a mix of one-bed and two-bed apartments.
The site partially sits within the Winwick Street conservation area and includes approx 400m² commercial unit to front Winwick Street, with a café proposed to front the train station on Central Way.
The scheme has two adjoining phases of residential apartments wrapped around an internal courtyard, both of which are accessed via the entrance foyer located on Winwick Street.
It also includes a large multi-storey car park with a 'living green wall' and a seventh floor 'sky lounge'.
Work is expected to be complete in 2021.
