The 17,600 sq ft office has been vacant since agency Mason Owen relocated to Chapel Street in 2019, and Liverpool City Council has now granted consent for the building to be redeveloped into flats.
The three-storey Union Square building is to be repurposed to provide 22 apartments, under plans lodged by Gladstone House Developments, headed up by director Andy Grabe.
Designed by Liverpool-based architect Falconer Chester Hall, the project will feature 14 one- and two-bedroom residential apartments and a further eight serviced apartments for short stays.
The development also includes plans for a single-storey, rooftop extension, described as the “minimum necessary intervention to make the proposal viable”, by planning consultant Zerum.
