Waterfront Place: January 2022 update
The Civic Society's Major Sites Group has sent a strongly worded objection to the proposed development on Waterfront Place.
129 Cumberland Road
The Civic Society welcomes the development of this underused site but has concerns over the height of the northern end of the scheme.
Vassall Centre, Fishponds
Bristol Civic Society supports the principle of redevelopment of this under-developed site to use it more efficiently but we have some concerns with the preapp proposals.
Plot 5 Bedminster Green: update November 2021
Bristol Civic Society supports the principle of a predominantly residential development of Plot 5 Bedminster Green. However, we have a number of serious concerns about this proposal and cannot support this application.
122 Bath Road
The Civic Society does not support a proposal to redevelop the existing car wash and car sales site at 122 Bath Road to provide 54 1 and 2 bed flats, in blocks up to 9 storeys high.
Trinity Road Police Station
The Society is generally supportive of the redevelopment of this site for residential purposes together with open space, landscaping, parking and associated development. However there are concerns over its height and impact of over neighbouring premises.
Old Market Street
The proposal comprises demolition and rebuilding of 34 Old Market Street plus demolition of the three residential blocks to the rear and construction of a new residential block. 15 residential units will be created.
Redcliffe Quarter
The Society objects to proposals for the land bounded by Redcliff Street, St Thomas Street and Three Queens Lane, Redcliffe. Of particular concern is the building proposed at the corner of Three Queens Lane and Redcliff Street.
