Addington Capital, a property investment and asset management firm, has now been given the go-ahead for 100 apartments of varying sizes - split into three blocks - on Melbourne Street.

Phil Symonds, partner at Addington told City Buzz: “This scheme will be Addington’s third PRS scheme in Leeds.
“We acquired, refurbished and sold 183 units in joint venture at Waterside and are currently on site at Headingley, where we have developed 124 units to date and are now about to develop another 27.
“Leeds has an estimated population of 780,000 which makes it the third largest city and a major metropolitan district in the UK. It has a vibrant student and young professional market, who we believe will find our scheme attractive.”

It also manages the 371-strong Velocity Village in Sheffield sites in Addington Capital’s portfolio.
