Architects Reddy Architecture & Urbanism have undertaken a feasibility study and suggest that a density of between 8 to 21 residential units would be permitted depending on the unit type and whether some of the existing structures are retained. The maximum density proposed in this report would be made up of six one bed apartments of 48 m² and 15 two bed apartments of 78 m². An alternative option might consist of a refurbishment of the two original houses and a new development of four 3 story terraced residential homes of 184 m².
