Select english language, then go to 'projects', then 'mixed use'. Top of the page are a couple of images for this exciting looking scheme.

Yes, I recall it was approved about three weeks ago along with another couple of projects (Park Square and another one I can't now remember!!).

I was thinking, there's so much work going on in the city centre that i'd make a map kinda thing for it.



Theres probably loads of little projects going on that arn't on there, but ah well.

Are you guys aware of The Moor proposals on John McAslan & Partners' website?

www.mcaslan.co.uk - click on the Projects button and then Commerce.

At the top of the list!

Cheers for that quite interesting!



John McAslan + Partners proposals for the first phase of a multi-phased redevelopment of The Moor in Sheffield are central to the regeneration of this mixed-use area at the heart of the city centre.

The site of the proposal enjoys a prominent position within the prime retail area of the city centre. The approach consolidates the required mixed-use provision into a new urban block. This will include 8,360 sqm of retail at ground and first floor levels, with 5,575 sqm of offices above and 13,900-18,600 sqm of residential units to the west, in a series of stepped towers facing Charter Row – the sites key open space.

Servicing and multilevel car parking are included to the rear of the block at ground level to minimise visibility, while negating the requirement for costly new basement construction.

I know the Moor is a bit scruffy, but that I think is mostly down to the messy street furniture, oversized market stalls and rubbish shops. Many of the buildings down there are actually alright to look at on the street side, and quite unusual for a city in that they are all white (either stone or stone effect) and the entire street matches. I would like to see more to be done to try and improve what we have there instead of seeing more plastic clad blocks put up...

This one'll look even more dense with V1, 2 & 3, Weston Tower and the new Cop Building.

Yeah. They're moving them to somwhere else and there's gonna be something built on the site of the old one. (Not sure what yet, but i've a feeling it's gonna be a reasonable height).

Anyone Know when the West bar Scheme, The Moor and The NRQ are due to start? Or anything about Weston Tower. I've not really heard anything about them for a while.
