Leicester’s Blueprint nightclub, in Church Gate, is to be destroyed and converted into a new hotel and flats complex.
The plans to demolish the nightclub and carry on with the scheme have been approved by Leicester City Council.
The former nightclub will be turned into a 171-room hotel, and a block of 142 apartments rising to 14 storeys.
However, there are concerns that the size of the new flats could affect the view of historic buildings nearby.
