Planning permission has been awarded for the £60m redevelopment of a tired shopping centre in Oxford, which will not just see improved retail facilities, but also the delivery of a new Travelodge hotel, restaurants and 226 flats at Templars Square in Cowley, 23% of which would be affordable.
The existing multi-story car park and bridge would be bulldozed to make way for the mixed-use project, but the existing shops would remain unchanged.
One block, which would be 15 storeys high, is the tallest “the city has considered in a long time”, according to a council officer’s report.
