BAM gets planning permission for Leeds office development

8 Feb 11 BAM Properties has secured planning permission for an 115,000sq ft seven-storey commercial office development in the West End of Leeds which will be known as Latitude Blue. It is now looking for an occupier so that it can start construction.

BAM Properties development director Michael Smart said: "This will be a high-spec development, designed and built to achieve a BREEAM ‘Excellent’ rating to deliver energy efficiency and low running costs."

As soon as a deal is done to let the development, sister company BAM Construction can get it built in 18 months. BAM Design is taking care of design.

This is BAM Properties’ third office development in Leeds. Lateral, its 96,000 sq ft office close to Leeds city centre, was sold in 2005 to Oregan financial Services, and an earlier 121,944 sq ft development in the West End, Latitude Red, was sold in 2007 to IVG.

The agents for Latitude Blue are BNP Paribas Real Estate in Leeds.
