Plans submitted to turn former offices into homes

Falling demand for office space - and rising demand for housing - could see an office block in central Douglas converted into flats.

Lazer Investments has applied to transform the upper floors of the  building on Market Street opposite for former Shoprite on Chester Street.

In its application, the company says it already had planning permission for 12 tourist flats but that has now lapsed.

But it says the proposals remain largely unchanged, with the homes earmarked for residential use.
