Developer Crosby Homes ( Special Projects) has announced the release of the first street-level commercial units at its latest Birmingam project, The Orion Building in Navigation Street, with three further units to follow next year.

Created in collaboration with international designer John Rocha and BBLB architects, The Orion Building comprises over 350 luxury apartments together with stylish communal areas and a stunning penthouse suite.

Located between New Street Station and the Mailbox, The Orion Building is already regarded among the city ' s most desirable addresses.

Available on the ground floor is a near-3,200 sq ft commercial unit, including over 100 feet of frontage on John Bright Street, overlooking the newly created square.

The location and layout of the property lends itself particularly to restaurant use, according to Russell Williams of city agents Shopfront Property Consultants:

"This is a perfect spot for a quality, high profile restaurant operator."
