One of our largest projects to date, Commercial Street, Newport required the demolition of a mid-terrace of dilapidated commercial buildings in the heart of Newport city centre and its replacement with a development of 38 affordable apartments, under-croft parking and a commercial unit, all accessed from Commercial Street.

The development is being carried out for Derwen Cymru and the Pobl Group and will provide homes for people who are over 55. The new apartments will share three roof terraces and will overlook a key access route to the Kingsway Shopping Centre, regenerating the area and offering residents unparalleled high quality city centre living.

Demolition work started on site in early 2018 with the project is set to be handed over in early 2020.
