LEGAL & General plans to develop around 250 'build to rent' homes in the heart of Leeds.

The financial services giant has bought a site in Mustard Wharf from U+I in partnership with CTP.

The site in Granary Wharf has planning permission for 250 homes as well as 8,640 sq ft of commercial and amenity space. L&G expects to start work on the £60m scheme in early 2018, with completion expected in early 2020.
