Plans for a new hotel development on one of Blackpool’s most prominent town centre sites have been passed by resort planners.
The high-profile hotel, designed by the Preston-based chief architects and master-planners, will deliver a conservation area sensitive scheme to be built on one of the Prom’s most popular sites.
David Robinson, managing partner at FWP, says: "We look forward to realising this important redevelopment plan and expect work to begin by the summer.
“The large penthouse suites on the corner aspects of the hotel will provide stunning views out over the promenade and the Irish Sea making the Sands Venue Resort and Hotel a real destination point for tourism in Blackpool.” FWP is a multi-disciplined practice founded more than half a century ago in Preston. Its approach is defined by the exploration of new ideas, development and expertise and a commitment to sustainability. In its home city of Preston, FWP is leading the multi-million pound regeneration of The Guild Hall and is playing a leading part in the development of the city’s Markets Quarter.
