LOCATION
The subject premises is located directly opposite the
entrance to the under construction Broadway Shopping
Centre (due to open in Autumn 2015) in the heart of the
City and within a convenient short walking distance of
the City Park, theatres, office core and both Bradford
Interchange and Bradford Forster Square railway stations.
The building itself forms part of the area of the City Centre
known as Little Germany, where German Merchants
constructed impressive and imposing fine buildings
for warehousing and offices in the early 19th Century.
These buildings have now been adapted with significant
redevelopment to accommodate a wide range of uses
including modern office space, retail and residential.
These listed buildings sit alongside Bradford Cathedral
and create a much regenerated and appealing part of the
City Centre.
