The closure of Margaret McMillan Tower is expected to save Bradford Council £1.1m a year, and staff will be re-located to City Hall and Britannia House. Plans to close the multi-storey office building were first announced in late 2022 as part of council budget proposals, but the closure has not yet happened.
“The council proposes to close and eventually dispose of Margaret McMillan Tower. “The building sits on the boundary of the council’s Transforming Cities work near the former Jacob’s Well roundabout. “With new public realm and green spaces on its doorstep and sitting next to the National Science and Media Museum, which is also undergoing a significant refurbishment, Margaret McMillan Tower will represent one of the most exciting investment opportunities in the city.
