Curzon Park

Birmingham City Centre
Eastside Partnership

DESCRIPTION

Hamiltons won an invited competition for a masterplan for a 10 acre site just outside Birmingham’s city centre. The scheme takes advantage of a unique opportunity to re-integrate Birmingham Eastside with the existing City Centre.

The masterplan is designed to create a unique identity and sense of place whilst being an integral part of a much wider and vibrant community, mediating between, and facilitating links with the surrounding city centre. The design incorporates Curzon Street Station and the new City Park which together will form the heart of Eastside. Curzon Street Station will become the centrepiece of a newly created public square which provides an elegant setting for the Grade II listed building and forms the gateway into the new development.

The outline planning permission provides for 130,000 m2 (1.4 million ft2) of office, residential, hotel and leisure uses.The first phase incorporates a 11,150 m2 (120,000 ft2) speculative office building, a 200-bedroom hotel and retail/leisure space.
