Welcome from Mike Whitby As Leader of Birmingham City Council, may I welcome you to the latest edition of Birmingham Developments. Birmingham’s regeneration continues apace, and as we report in this issue, there are a number of new schemes starting and ongoing projects are moving ahead rapidly.

Cllr Whitby

In this edition, there is a focus on current and proposed schemes with an investment value of £50 million and over. Also, for the first time, we are publishing a set of investment values for the city, to give an overview of current and future activity. Total investment value for projects in all Birmingham wards under construction and proposed over the next 10 years is currently £16.7 billion. Total office space in all Birmingham wards, proposed and under construction, over the next 10 years is 11,007,139 sq ft. Investment value for projects under construction and proposed in the city centre over the next 10 years is £11.4 billion. I am sure you will agree that these statistics are impressive and show a continued investment by developers in the future of our city. Kind regards Mike Whitby Leader of Birmingham City Council

With thanks Compiled with the support of agents and developers, and national and regional media. Front Cover View of The V Building from the Victoria Square Fountain – Dandara

A public/private sector partnership is envisaged, with plans to extend the existing Park Street gardens and encourage the regeneration of the Digbeth area with plans to create a City Centre Park. The demolition of the former Masshouse Circus has made way for a series of development sites and has allowed the city core to expand naturally eastwards and integrate Eastside with the rest of the City. Commercial development will include approx. 2.6m sq ft office space with approx. 3,000 new homes.

107 Eastside: City Park Leisure

The scheme will cement the City’s vision for this part of 1.7 Eastside by creating a City Centre Park that will create a statement of learning excellence and a gateway to the learning and leisure quarter of Eastside. A covered pedestrian street will link to the “Co locator” building; a simple linear bar of accommodation comprising mainly office, specialist retail and complementary food and drink outlets. The development will facilitate easy public access from the City Centre along attractive public thoroughfares, creating synergy towards Millennium Point and the wider Eastside area, developing the attractive public realm and leisure amenities at the heart of Eastside. It is hoped the Park will become the principal location for spontaneous social and cultural events with a potential to create cafés and restaurants to further liven the space. A judging panel has elected international architect, Patel Taylor to take forward the project. He will be assisted by Allain Provost, one of the world’s foremost park designers, and by Ove Arup and Partners.

City Park Gate is the final phase of the Masshouse jigsaw which was created as a result of the removal of the former Masshouse Circus, known as the concrete collar in March 2003. The competition to select a development partner to develop the remaining Masshouse sites was launched at the Urban Summit in Nov 2002. A heavy emphasis was placed on delivering a scheme with the highest level of design, sustainability and build quality. Cabinet in Dec 2003 gave approval to enter into discussions with Countryside Properties Plc who have been selected as a preferred development partner for the City Park Gate scheme. Their project has been designed by the much acclaimed international architects, Richard Rogers Partnership. To comprise 40,000 sq m residential, 10,000 sq m retail, 11,000 sq m office space.
