Client:

Trident Housing Association

 
Project Type:

Design and build contract of a young person foyer scheme

 
Completion Date:

November 2000

 
Description of Project:

The construction of 24 foyer apartments and associated communal & teaching facilities, around a central courtyard

 
Points of Interest:

The scheme involved the acquisition of the site initially by Concept Development Solutions Ltd., in order to enable Trident Housing Association to finalise funding arrangements.

A subsequent land and building contract, which the Company has entered into with Trident Housing Association, this will enable the development of 24 No. specially designed foyer apartments to be construction, together with communal teaching facilities, warden’s office and secured central courtyard facility.

The initial scheme posed a number of planning problems, many due to local residents reluctant to see “problem individuals”, brought into the immediate area. This perception however has been changed to the establishment of a close working relationship between Trident Housing Association, Sandwell MBC and the Company.
