    Park Hill nominated in World Monuments’ campaign

    05 May 2017
    A 2 minute read by Tom Bloxham

    We were delighted to hear that our Park Hill in Sheffield (seen here in its original 1960s glory!) has been shortlisted for the World Monuments’ Modern Century campaign to find the buildings around the world that matter to people.

    The campaign is calling on architecture fans to vote for the ‘modern architecture site that moves them’; the Grade II Listed Park Hill was submitted to the list after global experts, architects and architecture students nominated their favourite buidings.

    Park Hill’s in great company in the list so we’re pretty chuffed! We completed the first 260 homes there last year and have recently hosted a public consultation to showcase our plans for the next 200 homes and workspaces that we’ll soon be creating.
