Apartments for retired people could be built on the site of a former Lichfield city centre shop.
Plans have been submitted for the development on land where the What! shop once stood on Cross Keys.
The land – which is currently used as a car park – had previously received approval for 35 apartments and two shops to be built.
But now McCarthy & Stone Retirement Lifestyles Ltd has unveiled proposals to create 44 ‘retirement living apartments’.
The new building would also include communal facilities and guest suite.
A statement supporting the application said: “The proposal will provide high quality accommodation which satisfies the needs and demands of the local area.
“It represents a sustainable residential development that will create an attractive and safe living environment.”
Full details of the proposals can be seen on Lichfield District Council’s planning website.
