Cardiff
The Studio , 5 Cefn Coed Crescent , Cardiff , Wales , CF23 6AT , United Kingdom
This site is currently occupied by the BBC who are expected to be moving to central Cardiff in 2018. The site will be redeveloped for residential use, and Downs Merrifield have been appointed to prepare a Masterplan and sufficient detail for an outline planning application. The site comprises up to 400 new homes, both houses and apartments. The new development considers the need to provide place-making and as such has developed a strategy which creates residential crescents and squares in a mixture of small to medium rise apartments and town houses. The project received full planning in 2016 and will start on site once the BBC has moved to its new location in the centre of Cardiff
