The scheme, part of a wider redevelopment of the group’s Miller Street campus, is for a 15-storey block consisting of 325,000 sq ft of offices. If all goes to plan construction is expected to start at the beginning of next year.
It will serve the Co-op’s retail arm and is designed to be one of the most sustainable buildings in Europe.
The huge building is the first phase in a 20-acre regeneration project around Miller Street, for which an Arup-designed masterplan has already been endorsed by the city council.
