We are pleased to announce that we have reached practical completion on ‘The Spark’ this week. This new 12-storey commercial office building, with extensive landscaping and infrastructure works, is part of the wider Newcastle Helix redevelopment of the former Newcastle Brewery site.
The building provides Grade A office space that is fully BCO compliant, along with a shared reception area and separate units facing onto public squares. The development is on target to achieve BREEAM “Excellent” and a WiredScore Platinum rating, and is connected into a local District Energy network that provides all services to the building.
Potter Raper were appointed as the Project Manager and Employer’s Agent from the outset and it’s the second building we have completed for this redevelopment, having previously worked on ‘The Lumen’, a building of a similar scale on the adjacent plot, which was handed over in 2020.
