What's going up

Planning permission was granted in March 2017 for the construction of 24 apartments and 33,000 sq ft of office space which has been launched as ‘SIXTYTHREE’.

Works have commenced to restore the iconic listed Garfield Building which will provide luxury apartments under the Garfield & North brand. In March 2018 the planning committee voted in favour to consent an international HQ office building of 150,000 sq ft with ground floor retail units alongside significant improvements to the public realm to provide a new street and church square.
