Working on behalf of client Coastal Housing Group, planning permission has been secured for Castle Quarter – a mixed-use development overlooking Swansea Castle, consisting of 26 affordable flats and four private duplex flats, with 743 sq m for restaurants and cafes.
Castle Quarter follows on from the £30m Urban Village development on High Street and the Strand, also designed by Holder Mathias. The hope is that these residential-led schemes will introduce vitality into this area of the city, while recognising its historical importance.
Terry Morley, partner at Holder Mathias, said: ‘This site is hugely important for Swansea and will create a striking new quarter for the city that places the castle at its heart. Together with the Urban Village development, this scheme will hugely enhance the existing qualities of the area.
