Manximus Aururaneus Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 I shall be writing to the planners to support the development. If objectors wish to write in, as is their right, then they need to come up with something better than the wreck that already exists there or face failure. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finlo Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Previous form would suggest when Dandara secure planning for x amount they always creep back looking to double the amount (within the same footprint). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An interesting challenge for the planning people as the proposed hotel isn't financially viable in itself (ie the consultants have said it is operationally viable) So they will only get the proposed hotel there with the sale of the proposed luxury residences funding it Quite what the point of building an hotel that is only 'operationally viable' is I do not know Create jobs for people that would have to be imported?

Building just the hotel would be far too expensive - servicing the capital would not be viable. By building the apartments as well the cost of the hotel comes down and shares some facilities with the apartment owners. It's not uncommon these days. Bring it on!

Pool, spa, hotel facilities and rooms on the ground floor. Apartments on 3 floors ranging between 112sq m and 200+ sq m. One two floor. 4 on the partial 4th floor. Not taller than existing tower. Is there basement parking there already? If not, then aren't they going to have to mine/quarry it out of the rock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
