Regeneration awards
September 2009
Roger Tym & Partners attended the annual Regeneration & Renewal awards in London on 23 September as a guest of Prospect Leicestershire – a new economic development company and the area’s successor to Leicester Regeneration Company. RTP was very pleased for its successful clients – three won awards – and for the part RTP played in assisting their success:- Leicester Regeneration Company - Regeneration Partnership of the Year for its delivery of a "coherent city centre strategy".
RTP led the team that prepared the strategy – the Leicester City Centre Masterplan – and is delighted that it has proved to be of genuine value to LRC in transforming Leicester city centre. - St Stephens, Hull - Mixed Use Project of the Year.
RTP led the masterplan team that was the genesis of St Stephen’s and went on to play a key role for the Council, Yorkshire Forward and English Partnerships in helping to deliver the vision for St Stephen’s – a retail-led scheme which helped to finance and deliver a bus-rail interchange in the restored Grade 2 rail station, a music centre for Hull’s schools and a new home for Hull Truck as well as major new public spaces. - Hammerson - Developer of the Year for Highcross in Leicester and Cabot Circus in Bristol.
The Highcross scheme was one of the major projects promoted by the RTP-led Leicester City Centre Masterplan; RTP also advised on retail capacity and gave expert evidence at the CPO inquiry.
