  2. Uses which create activity at ground floor level, particularly along the boulevard and other key routes.
  3. High quality design which conserves and where appropriate enhances the setting of the adjacent listed buildings and Union Street Conservation Area, informed by a detailed heritage character assessment to be undertaken for the proposal.
  4. East / West public linkages through the site to provide better connections through the area.
  5. High quality design which preserves and enhances the setting of the adjacent listed buildings and Union Street Conservation Area.
  6. A scale of development appropriate to create an urban character. Taller landmark buildings on key corners will be sought to mark the entryway to the Millbay Boulevard.
