Transformation of Angel Court to get underway
3:07pm Monday 31st December 2012 in News
WORK to transform Colchester’s Angel Court will start in the New Year.
The imposing High Street building, which currently houses Colchester Council’s customer service centre, will be converted into a mix of restaurants, offices, shops and apartments.
Building work will start this month which will allow Essex developer City & Country, which bought Angel Court from the council for £2 million in 2010, to create separate entrances to the ground floor sections which will be leased out.
A temporary tunnel entrance will be created during the three month building project, and council officials insist residents will be able to access the customer service centre and the self-service facilities.
