Palace Capital secures major planning consent in York
Palace Capital, the property investment company that focuses on
commercial property outside London, today announces that its
planning application for a major development on the Company's
2-acre site at Hudson House, Toft Green, York was granted, subject
to conditions, by City of York Council yesterday evening.
Hudson House, which is within the City Walls, and only one
minute's walk from York Railway Station, is a 1960s office building
with a lettable floor area of 103,000 sq ft.
Following extensive consultations, the Company submitted a new
planning application in March of this year to demolish the existing
property and erect four new buildings comprising a total net area
of 132,893 sq ft. Under the plans, three of the buildings will have
a total of 127 apartments and 5,000 sq ft of commercial/restaurant
space, whilst the other will comprise 34,000 sq ft net of Grade A
offices.
Neil Sinclair, the Chief Executive of Palace Capital, commented:
"Hudson House was part of the Sequel Portfolio which we acquired
from Quintain in 2013 and where we already have two other planning
approvals. We are very excited about the prospects for this site
and now we have consent we will be focusing on how best to maximise
shareholder value whilst limiting the risk to our Company."
