Hide AdBosses at developer TIAA Henderson had originally intended to convert the existing block into housing.
They are now bidding to install a central bank of lifts in place of an existing turnpike stair.
A new roof will also be installed.
In a design statement, the architects said: “The key aspect of the design is the beneficial improvement it brings to the public realm.”
