Halifax Warehouse Could Become Homes and Micro Brewery for O and C Ltd

A company, O and C. Management Ltd., wants to change a Grade II listed building in Halifax, the Deal Street building that was once part of a wool warehouse. They have done work in Halifax before.

The company plans six apartments on the upper floors, along with new windows and openings. The basement and ground floor will remain industrial. They also want to re-roof the building and include solar panels, which needs approval from local planners.

The planning application number, 25/00026/LBC, can be found on the council website. The business space may become a micro brewery, with storage also planned for the building.

The building’s history dates back to around 1849, when it started as a wool warehouse. According to the application, the building has been empty for nearly two years.

The company believes this plan is beneficial, as converting empty space aligns with local rules. Halifax aims to add homes in empty spaces; these renovations help the building get used again and support Halifax’s town center improvements.
