BlackRock who own the Colosseum Retail Park is one of the largest asset management firms in the world. BlackRock have partnered with NEAT Developments, a London-based property developer focusing on large scale mixed use regeneration projects to bring forward these proposals. Together BlackRock and NEAT Developments are exploring opportunities to redevelop the site and create a new local centre, including new homes, jobs and public spaces.
We are at the initial stages in the process, and we are currently proposing:
- Up to 1,587 new homes (studio, one, two and three beds) to buy and rent including affordable homes
- A Workhub; a new business hub
- ‘The Heart’; a focal point for the scheme comprising public space surrounded by local shops, cafes and restaurants with pedestrian links through to the surrounding area
- New green links through the site providing north-south and east-west connections
- Pedestrianised routes from Dearsley Road to Southbury Road and from Baird Road
- A third of the site, which is the size of approximately 3 football pitches, will be open space
- A new travel hub where people can rent bikes and cars, plan their journeys on public, and sign up for car clubs and cycling schemes to encourage a shift to more sustainable transport
If approved, the scheme will be delivered in phases. In the first phase, when B&Q’s lease expires 400-450 homes are built and The Heart is developed. The rest of the scheme will then be built out in phases.
