Kingswood Extra Care, Newton

PROJECT OVERVIEW

The Kingswood extra care retirement scheme in Chester is one of the latest projects we have worked on for Your Housing Group.

The scheme, designed by Pozzoni Architects includes 82, 1 and 2 bed extra care apartments and communal facilities. The scheme has been created through a partnership between Your Housing Group, Cheshire West and Chester Council and the HCA and was part funded by a grant received from the HCA.

This extra care development has been designed to allow residents to live an independent life in a socially supportive environment. They contribute towards YHG’s £150 million affordable homes program helping tackle the national older person’s housing crisis by providing 450 high quality new homes for the over 55s across the North West, making YHG one of the largest developers of extra care housing in the UK.

As a minimum all apartments have been designed to achieve Code for Sustainable Homes (CFSH) Level 3.

Khalsa Science Academy, Leeds

PROJECT OVERVIEW

This project involves the adaption of an existing vacant education facility (a 1950s predominantly single storey accommodation) to create a new two form entry, 420 place primary school for children from foundation stage to key stage 2.

The works include demolition of obsolete areas and major refurbishment of existing premises and a part new build two storey extension to increase the size of the premises to accommodate 420 pupils plus staff (2,072m2 GIFA), plus associated external works to the car park, landscaping, playground and sports field.

The works are intended to include but not limited to new roof coverings, masonry repairs, structural alteration, new glazing/curtain walling, replacement of M&E, new internal partitions, new joinery, new finishes, and a new build extension.

The premises are expected to be used outside of normal school hours for a wide range of community uses and consideration should be given to the provision of flexible spaces for a variety of uses and access arrangements outside of school hours to limit community access to specific parts of the school only.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Hannan Associates were part of the Development Team for the £150M Kampus city centre neighbourhood project on Aytoun Street in Manchester.

The project is a joint venture between Capital & Centric and Henry Boot Developments who acquired Manchester Metropolitan University’s 250,000 sq ft Aytoun Street campus in March 2014, when the University relocated to the new £75m All Saints Campus off Oxford Road.

Our role included the Site infrastructure, MEP services and Lift design from concept to Stage 3 and the preparation of a D&B tender package for the works. Our role in the team included product appraisal and definition, brief development and the evaluation of a number of possible strategies for the services.

The development included the retention and conversion of the existing 1960’s university tower block and the listed Minto & Turner and Minsull House buildings, alongside new structures to provide 500 apartments, leisure, retail and car parking facilities.

Kampus has regenerated and enhanced an important area in the centre of Manchester, providing private rental accommodation set within a landscaped public realm which includes the only remaining untouched cobble street in Manchester and buildings of historical interest. The ground floor hosting restaurants, bars, cafes and retail spaces within the new and existing buildings, creating an exciting live hub and living destination.
