£180m Bristol urban village plans approved


Bristol City Council has approved plans for a £180m regeneration of the Redcliff Quarter, which could create up to 500 jobs.

Change Real Estate can now move forward with its plans to create a 600,000 sq ft mixed-use urban village. This will feature the first Radisson Red lifestyle hotel in England, which will help meet the need for visitor accommodation in the city with 185 beds and attracting around 70,000 guests a year.

There will be a European-style food court to be run by Michelin starred chef and foodie entrepreneur Josh Eggleton, plus a roof-top restaurant with panoramic views over the city, cafes.

The scheme also includes 15,000 sq ft of offices and what will become Bristol’s tallest residential building at 22 storeys.

There will be an estimated £7m per annum contributed to the local economy once the development is complete. .
