Designed by architects Glancy Nichols, the building is a conversion of Herbert House which dates back more than a 100 years. The outer red brick maintains a sophistication that many of the new builds don't have today. The Lightwell has a EWS1 report (conducted after Grenfell) to confirm that with no cladding, no remedial works have been necessary and the building is fire safe. With secure access to the building, you’ll find your post box, a lift and winding staircase. Amazon lockers have been voted for and will soon be installed. Location

Positioned just behind the prestigious Colmore Row, in Birmingham’s business district, The Lightwell building sits on 61 Cornwall Street, which has recently undergone a redevelopment to pedestrianise part of the road and make it much more attractive with plants and seating arrangements. It's only 0.1 miles away from Snow Hill station and just a 0.4 mile walk to Birmingham New Street station. Despite the building being surrounded by lots of restaurants, bars and nightlife, Cornwall Street and the property itself is very quiet - a little oasis in the city centre.
