Plans have been lodged to convert a Harrogate office block into seven flats.
Artium Group has submitted the proposal to Harrogate Borough Council to create the flats at Simpson House, off Clarence Drive.
It would see the vacant offices turned into one one-bedroom, five two-bedroom and one three-bedroom flats.
The developer also plans to use the current 14 car parking spaces and create storage for seven bicycles.
In documents submitted to the council, Artium Group said the proposal would help to make efficient use of the building.
It said:
Harrogate Borough Council will make a decision on the proposal at a later date.
