Run by Regus, the business hub offers 106 fully-furnished, customisable private offices and 18 individual co-working desks, designed with flexibility in mind. A mix of bookable meeting rooms, break-out spaces and hot desks, this is a buzzy, welcoming space for members and visitors alike. Amenities include secure underground parking, 24-hour CCTV monitoring, bicycle storage and showers.

The award-winning student accommodation, run by Fresh, puts a sense of community at the heart of the student experience. The development includes large social spaces including a large open-plan kitchen and games room, alongside study and meeting spaces. Bedrooms are either ensuite with a shared kitchen or light and airy self-contained studios.

The construction project included demolition of the existing 7-storey reinforced concrete and steel framed office building and the erection of a new 16 storey higher education facility. The build comprised 486 student accommodation units across 16 floors with ancillary support services together with 38,309 sq/ft of office/education space and provision of new 2 storey basement car parking for 123 cars plus cycle parking. A new electrical substation was also incorporated into the buildings at ground level.
