First look 😲 inside Leeds’ huge new ‘Aire Park’ development as it begins to take shape on the South Bank 🏗️
Surrounding the iconic Tetley building near the city centre - new homes, offices, leisure space and a hotel are well under construction.
That’s all part of Phase One of the build, and now plans for Phase Two have been unveiled.
It will eventually see Leeds become home to the largest new city centre green space in the UK - at eight acres in size!
The development has faced some scrutiny, with fears for the future use of The Tetley building itself after the charity that was in the space announced its lease had come to an end. They’re yet to find a new home.
Kirkstall Brewery will occupy the space at The Tetley for now, with long-term plans yet to be decided.
Nearby venue Sheaf Street also announced its shock closure in 2023 - citing rising costs and the nearby building work as having a “devastating impact on trade”.
Developers Vastint UK say they’re excited about the Aire Park programme of regeneration - and the potential for it to transform the South Bank area of Leeds.
