Castle Park View is a high-rise residential development at the south-eastern edge of Castle Park in Bristol, England, located on the site of the former Central Ambulance Station. Completed in 2022, it comprises five blocks containing 375 flats in total, arranged around a courtyard and anchored by a 26-storey tower designed by Chapman Taylor. Of the flats, 300 are for private rent and 75 are affordable homes.
The tower is 86.6 m (284 ft) high, or 98.37 m (322.7 ft) above ordnance datum (AOD). The tower overtopped the spire of St Mary Redcliffe during construction and is Bristol's tallest occupied building, as well as the first of the new wave of city-centre high-rises to be completed after the relaxation of earlier guidance on tall buildings.
