Two-phase development would see an initial six-storey affordable housing block joined by a fifteen-storey tower at a later stage

Singh Fudge Architects has secured planning permission for a new six-storey apartment building on Lincoln Street in central Coventry.

The project, situated on a brownfield site, includes 20 affordable family apartments. The design focuses on maximising natural light through large windows on two sides and spacious corner balconies.

Seeking to emphasise a connection with nature and increased biodiversity, the architects have also proposed an extensive landscape scheme for the site. The planting is intended to serve as a buffer to the main road, which leads to the city centre.
