Midlands Summer BBQ and Tour
Urban Splash has an unrivalled reputation for transforming seemingly impossible relics but had little experience of commercial space on this scale – let alone a fringe location promising high risks and low rents. Despite this they came through with flying colours to create a thriving mixed-use scheme, including offices, shops and a hotel.
The judges felt a key to its success was that Urban Splash owned the building and was also the main contractor. They could build the hotel first, providing essential funding, and take their time renovating floor by floor.
This renovtation, bringing an industrial building back into a new use, demonstrates a rare social and economic awareness which alongside its success in attracting occupiers provides a wake-up call to more conventional established offices.
