Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council\u2019s plans for the town centre include regenerating Ryecroft, Astley Place and the Midway car park, bringing 328 new homes, retail and businesses<\/h2>\n

Social impact developer Capital&Centric is working with Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council to deliver the town centre regeneration plans, with planning permission in place for all three sites.<\/p>\n

The arrival of \u00a318.94m from Homes England is the final part of the public-private financial package put together by the partners to underpin the work.<\/p>\n

The regeneration project will deliver over 241 new homes<\/h3>\n

At Rye Park (Ryecroft), Capital&Centric will deliver around 130 apartments in three units, alongside a green urban park, while other parts of the site are earmarked for Aspire Housing.<\/p>\n

At the former Midway car park, Capital&Centric is repurposing a concrete-framed multi-storey car park into high-quality housing. In a UK first<\/a>, the landmark concrete structure, now known as Karparc, will be transformed into 111 new apartments with shared facilities including a gym, residents\u2019 lounge and mini-cine.<\/p>\n

At the former York Place site, now renamed Astley Place, Capital&Centric are retaining the original shopping centre structure, repurposing it into apartments with ground-floor retail and leisure space and green outdoor areas.<\/p>\n

That project will create more accommodation and commercial space, while opening the area between Merrial Street and Ironmarket, around the Old Bulls Head pub, where owner Joule\u2019s Brewery plans to create a live music venue.<\/p>\n

Turning brownfield into businesses<\/h3>\n

Simon Tagg, leader of Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council, said: \u201cThese three projects will change the face of Newcastle town centre, and I\u2019m delighted that the final part of our funding has arrived as planned.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere will be hundreds more people living in the heart of the town providing opportunities for new and existing businesses, while the reshaping of York Place and creation of public space there will link the Ryecroft to the High Street and market area.<\/p>\n

\u201cAdd the plans for the aparthotel and the music space at the Old Bull\u2019s Head and this is a most exciting time to be in Newcastle.\u201d<\/p>\n

John Moffat, joint managing director of Capital&Centric, said: \u201cThis is a major statement of intent by Homes England and Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt will enable us to deliver the regeneration that Newcastle-under-Lyme deserves. We are breaking new ground by doing something no one else has attempted before: taking a shopping centre and a car park and turning them into new homes.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s an exciting moment. This funding will help us unlock the town\u2019s potential and create a buzzing new heart for everyone to enjoy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jo Nugent, acting executive director Markets, Partners and Places at Homes England said \u201c\u201cAs the government\u2019s housing and regeneration agency, we are committed to supporting partners to unlock housing sites where brownfield infrastructure is a barrier to delivery.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis project will help to transform Newcastle-under-Lyme\u2019s town centre, bringing a diversified housing offer of 328 new homes, commercial space and regeneration of brownfield land for the borough and the wider region.<\/p>\n

\u201cMade possible by an \u00a318.94m infrastructure grant from our Brownfield Infrastructure Land fund<\/a>, delivery is now ready to start and we look forward to seeing new residents move into these homes in the coming years.\u201d<\/p>\n
