Meanwhile Glenn Howells aims to regenerate run-down shopping centre

Glancy Nicholls Architects has submitted plans for Birmingham’s tallest tower, a 61-storey block of flats.

The 100 Broad Street development, south-west edge of the city centre, will replace a disused office building in a low-rise district but, at 193m, it will eventually be the tallest point in an emerging high-rise cluster.

Glancy Nicholls’ two Bank towers, rising to 33 storeys and 102m, are underway and Glenn Howells recently won planning for the 42-storey, 129m Moda tower.
