Building Unveiled At £85m Gloucester Scheme

Construction News Image
An £85 million project at The Waterfront at Gloucester Quays is beginning to take shape after a recent event.

Local councillors and Crest Nicholson employees joined The Right Worshipful Mayor of Gloucester, Councillor Colin Organ to officially open the first building at the site.

Comprising 362 one and two bedroom apartments along with 49 two and three bedroom houses, the first residential phase at The Waterfront is well underway, with residents moving in over Christmas.

Mayor of Gloucester Councillor Colin Organ commented: "I am delighted to officially open the first building at The Waterfront. It is fantastic to meet with all those involved and learn more about the vision for this new community. This is an impressive development and something the wider community can be proud of. It will provide much needed new homes in a central Gloucester location, for first-time buyers looking to get onto the property ladder, as well as local downsizers. It is a pleasure to see Crest Nicholson developing an already vibrant and integrated community, evolving a place that people will be proud to call home for years to come."

Sandra Dixon, Sales and Marketing Director at Crest Nicholson South West added: "It is an honour to welcome the Mayor of Gloucester to The Waterfront and this is a perfect occasion to celebrate the opening of the first building as residents start to move in. We are proud to continue to play a part in the ongoing redevelopment of the wider Gloucester Quays area and delivering much needed housing for a range of buyers."

Externally, The Waterfront has been designed to pay tribute to the industrial heritage of the site, taking inspiration from the red brick warehouses lining the water's edge. The contemporary homes and apartments feature a luxurious interior style and the apartments benefit from private parking and secure cycle storage.
