A row of Grade II-listed buildings on Whitefriargate in Hull are to be partially converted into modern apartments following a £433,000 grant from Historic England.
The grant will support the conversion of unused upper floor space, above retail units, at 7-9 Whitefriargate.
Hull City Council is also supporting the project, which is being delivered by Hull Trinity House Charity, with a £35,000 grant.
Whitefriargate is undergoing a multi-million pound regeneration scheme, supported by private investment as well as funding from Hull City Council, Historic England and the Hull and East Yorkshire LEP.
Historic England’s High Street Heritage Action Zone on Whitefriargate is investing £1.75m into projects that will revitalise the area, diversify the traditional high street offer and bring unused floor space back into use.
