Birmingham to get new skyscraper after plans unveiled for long-awaited redevelopment

A Kuwaiti developer has unveiled plans to build the tallest office building in Birmingham as part of a £158m city centre development after years of delays.

Property company Salhia is poised to start work on the project later this year, and is seeking companies to occupy the office space, which will sit alongside new homes, shops, restaurants and a hotel.

The site where the scheme will be built is known as Beorma Quarter, which takes its name from the first settlement of Birmingham during the Anglo-Saxon period.
