The scheme, which is a stone’s throw from Glancy Nicholls Architects’ under-construction 30-storey South Central residential tower, is the latest in a series of high-rise developments proposed for Birmingham.
Senior architect at the practice Drew Lowe said: ‘We are excited to share the plans for Trifecta with the public and believe that, if approved, this development will breathe new life into Bristol Street and the surrounding area.
The ground floors of the buildings at the corner of Bristol Street and Bromsgrove Street would provide 590m2 of commercial and leisure space. The floors above would provide 550 apartments over 48,000m2.
The 50,000m2 three-part Trifecta Residences scheme was drawn-up by the Manchester practice for developer Ryland Estates, which submitted the proposals for planning late last month.
They include Metropolitan Workshop’s consented 48-storey 2 Snowhill Plaza tower, Associated Architects’ recently approved 41-storey Curzon Wharf and Howells’ under-construction 49-storey Octagon.

Under the designs, a 0.6 hectare site on the Bristol Road, just south of Birmingham city centre, would be redeveloped with construction of a six and 10-storey building alongside a 40-storey tower.
