The latest addition to the Handy Cross Hub site could be a five and six-storey office and self-storage building.
The site at the top of Marlow Hill in High Wycombe is owned by Buckinghamshire Council (formerly Wycombe District Council) and work has been ongoing there for years to redevelop it into a "celebrated entrance" to the town.
So far, a coachway, Waitrose, 150-bed hotel, leisure centre and nursery has been built on the site - but their latest addition could be offices and a self-storage building.
Fresh plans have been submitted this week, revealing intentions for the western end of the site, next door to the newly-built Hampton by Hilton hotel.
The new building would feature five upper storeys, with ground level parking.
The main office reception will be on ground level with an undercroft access road cutting through the building, dividing the office and storage and providing a route through to the car park and loading bay area at the back.
The self-storage entrance will be on the opposite side of the access road, underneath the undercroft.
The rest of the ground floor will feature a number of self-storage units.
The self-storage would be operated by Access Self Storage - who are submitting the plans - and would be around 13,057 square metres.
Eleven trees on the site will have to be removed, but there are plans to plant more elsewhere.
There will be step-free access to the buildings, accessible toilets, disabled parking spaces and lift access to all floors.
The office space being provided - 3,380 square metres - appears to be a lot less than was initially hoped for on the site, but according to a marketing report by Savills, it has been tricky to get any companies to commit to moving in.
According to their report, companies like Volvo, Maersk and Bosch were approached but decided against moving to the Handy Cross Hub.
Cobham PLC in Marlow reportedly decided to reconfigure their existing building to accommodate more staff, while Maersk decided to focus on Slough due to transport connectivity.
5G Communications said it needed a hybrid building, which the Handy Cross Hub site could not provide, while Johnson & Johnson decided to upgrade their existing centres in Wycombe and Wokingham instead.
Wycombe-based company IFS reportedly wanted to relocate to Staines to recruit from a sector-specific talent pool, while Volvo chose Maidenhead instead of High Wycombe.
Their report also highlighted "no appetite for the speculative development of high quality offices" at the site.
