After nearly four years of design development we are eagerly awaiting the outcome of our planning application to progress Southend City Centre from a town to a city.
The old Empire Theatre site in Alexandra Street is proposed as mixed-use development with a large area given over to a new pedestrian tree lined street together with a series of small commercial units to the ground floor within an enclosed arcade. The proposal also includes community space on the first floor opening out onto a shared garden and a series of City Centre contemporary apartments.
We believe this scheme along with other projects we are working on are transformational and will lead to an aspirational City Centre living, working and relaxing by the sea.
We are keeping our fingers crossed for a positive outcome.
