Former YMCA building in Wolverhampton to be turned into flats
The former YMCA building in Wolverhampton city centre is to be converted into nine one and two-bedroom apartments, council planners announced this week.
Previously known as The Bridge, the office in Temple Street has been empty for several years and has since fallen into a state of disrepair. New owner Adrian Ballard of Abersytwyth-based Ballard Properties UL Ltd has been given the go-ahead to transform the building into modern living accommodation.
In a statement to planners, Bruce Jones of Wolverhampton-based DPS Architects, said: “The two-storey property lies near the junction with Summer Row, but the building has lapsed into a state of dereliction. The owners now wish to transform it into living space, which will involve internal and external renovation works.
