Creating a Thriving District

The project will create a new mixed-use neighbourhood, which includes transforming Great George Street into a linear park and landscaped public spaces along one of the city’s most notable routes.

A key feature of the development is the creation of ample green spaces and public areas, including a square where markets and cultural performances can be held. Ascot is committed to supporting local independent businesses and aims to create a vibrant district home to diverse enterprises.

Reimagining Urban Architecture: A Modern Approach to Historical Charm

The design approach, which makes extensive use of brick and exposed ironwork in construction, is sympathetic to the character of the Baltic Quarter. It also complements the backdrop of the cathedral. The development is particularly interested in attracting local start-ups and businesses that may be outgrowing their existing spaces or looking for new co-working and venue opportunities.
