There are a number of vast new developments
Nottingham is primed for a series of major construction projects that will change the face of the historic city this year. These range from area transforming schemes like the Island Quarter regeneration to large residential projects.
The plans were devised after Nottingham College moved to a new city hub and transferred ownership of the Clarendon building to LocalEd, the arms-length property company of the Department for Education. More than £5million in council grants will be used to build the new secondary school, despite some councillors comparing its design to a prison.
This will pass through the new Lister Square green space, with the council have labelled the 'green heart' of the project. In a Greater Nottingham Planning Partnership planning documents, the area is also provisionally allocated for 1,000 new homes. The structure will be the first new bridge over the River Trent since Clifton Bridge opened in 1958. The bridge is designed to make it easier for walkers and cyclists to places such as Colwick Country Park from the south side of the river, connecting Lady Bay and Trent Basin, off Trent Lane, where hundreds of homes are expected to be built.Island Quarter A new era has dawned at a once derelict Nottingham site as the first venture of a £1billion regeneration project opened its doors.
The former Royal Mail sorting office has previously been labelled Nottingham's ugliest building and was due to be demolished soon to make way for a 13-storey student building providing 692 bed spaces. Nottingham City Council passed the plans for the huge redevelopment in August 2021, but Bricks Group bought the plot and plans in April last year before altering the plans.
The site spans 42.65 hectares, with five to 10 hectares of employment space outlined in the plan. News of the site's inclusion in the development plan comes after Nottingham City Council made a decision to sell 40 acres of the land, to the north of the A610 and west of Cinderhill, in 2017.
