OLYMPIC LEGACY PARK PROJECTS TO PROVIDE £60M BOOST TO AREA The revitalisation of the former economic powerhouse Attercliffe is taking further significant steps thanks to the new plans. A series of developments at the Sheffield Olympic Legacy Park are set to provide a £60m boost to the Attercliffe area of the city. Attercliffe, which is home to much of Sheffield’s engineering past, is set for a quadruple boost with the announcement of schemes including a major mixed-use development proposed for the nearby Adelphi

square site, comprising bars, restaurants, shops, housing, a themed meeting venue, workspace and a branded hotel. There are also plans for the redevelopment and expansion of the Banners building, now home to law firm Wosskow Brown, on Attercliffe Road as well as a new 100-bedroom hotel created by The English Institute of Sport Sheffield. The hotel will be centred on the needs of athletes and para-athletes and support staff who use the facilities at Sheffield

Olympic Legacy Park, helping to attract more Olympic and Paralympic squads to the city. Work will also start in December on an improved Community Stadium, currently used by Sheffield Eagles Rugby League Club and Sheffield United Women Football Club. “We are seeing the regeneration and redevelopment of Attercliffe as a result of the expansion of Sheffield Olympic Legacy Park,” said the Rt. Hon. Richard Caborn, project lead for Sheffield Olympic
