Anyone know what happened to this?
A Major Mixed Use Scheme In Birmingham City Centre
Situated between Digbeth High Street and Bradford Street, Deritend Bridge is a mixed use development comprising offices, shops, hotel and residential accommodation. Outline Planning Approval has been granted for a total area of 31, 000 sqm. The development site is bisected by the River Rea which allows for a public space in the heart of the site and a riverside walkway to generate a high level of pedestrian access into and through the development. Two basement car parks serve the multi-storey blocks over.

The Site has obviosly been cleared, which is progress, but the developer bought the St Anne’s site up bradford street, and I believe wanted to rework all the planning to bunk all the affordable stuff up there… not really in the spirit of Pepperpotting eh!! Either way I notice that the St Anne’s site has been cleared now too, including the two locally listed buildings, which I’m furious about, amazingly the FA Cup was made in one of those buildings, they still had the moulds, probably melted down for scrap now!
This site is what is now known as Connaught Square I believe? I don’t know if this is due to a change in developer or what.
