1 x 36m building (approx. same height as St Davids 2 apartments); and
1 x 32m building (approx. same height as St Davids 2 apartments).

How tall will plot 1 be? I assuming around 50-60m.

This development should add nicely to the skyline!


I've just seen some drawings for a building that sits on Plot 6 / Plot 7 - I think the readers of this forum will like it! Presumably it's only an outline design so I'd better not say anymore but it will certainly stand out from everything else.

That is being a great big bloody tease !

Now I'm very very curious

I really would like to say more - but as I probably wasn't meant to see it I can't at the moment. Obviously discussions are ongoing at the moment with development on this site so hopefully I will be able to say more soon.

The building that is actually being built is the only one we don't seem to know the height of, but No1 (plot 1) is only 9 storeys so my guess is more 50 than 60 in fact I reckon 45m - but I stand to be corrected :)

My guess would be 42m for Plot 1.

I noticed the 5 plots of 42m were all exactly 1m shorter than the millenium stadium roof at 43m (i assume by design).

Looking at this picture from the design and access statement of plot 1, it also looks about the same height (if not 1m shorter) than the roof of the MS.
