The proposed development has already been forward sold on completion.

Kam Mogul, managing director for KMRE, commented: “This cleverly designed and well located scheme is now underway as our construction team proceed with demolition and site clearing.

“We are pleased to be starting this high quality development of 1, 2, and 3 bedroom apartments close to the widely anticipated Yorkshire Post building redevelopment.

“It’s located close to the inner ring road and has an array of amenities including restaurants, pubs, and a cinema whilst being within walking distance of the city centre. Attributes that attracted us to the location from the beginning!

“Having already agreed a sale of the whole scheme on build completion, we feel this truly indicates the strength of confidence and appetite to purchase from professional investors in the city.

“Leeds is a vibrant, prosperous city and this PRS development sits alongside our other current project in the city; Mabgate Gateway where we are already on site building 92 PRS apartments.”
