Working alongside clients Cityregen Leicester and Galliford Try Investments, the scheme will deliver up to 1,000 new homes alongside substantial new public spaces and improved links between the city centre and Abbey Park.
The Corah project is centred around the rejuvenation of the 1865 Old Textile Building, with the façade and the two chimneys being retained and reintegrated into the development.
Corah Green is also being repurposed as a civic space, alongside a new canal side-park, play areas and tree planting.
Maber have provided an integrated masterplanning, architecture and landscape service for the project. Ensuring that the scheme not only creates a characterful and attractive place to live, but also delivers a commercially viable solution that can be delivered.
