“The building will have two doors leading to the 10 apartments over two floors, one door will lead to apartments 1-6 and the other door will lead to apartments 7-10.
“Each apartment will have two bedrooms, a bathroom and a living/kitchen/dining area. Access to the site remains via Edward Street across two accesses: a shared entrance between Mount Zion House, Adoration Chapel and the site.
“The amenity space will be where the outdoor play area for the former nursery was. There will be internal bin and bicycle storage for the proposed residents.”
