Former home of Express & Star set for 145 homes
The former home of the Express & Star has been earmarked for 145 homes.
The Express & Star team have relocated to new offices in Mander House, above the Mander Centre in Wolverhampton after moving out of the property, which stretches across Queen Street, Castle Street and Tower Street, in early December.
The former site has now been identified for future housing development.
Wolverhampton Council planning documents show that the 0.53 hectare site is currently earmarked for 145 homes but that “higher capacity” could potentially be delivered.
The building was put on sale last year and remains on the market with estate agent Knight Frank and is described as a “rare, substantial city centre mixed use opportunity with approximately 350 space multi-storey car park”.
It was highlighted as a potential investment opportunity in a prospectus published by Wolverhampton Council last year.
