Published: 05 August, 2011
Designs for the newSovereignHarbourRetailParkhave been released which will include a state-of-the-art nine-screen cinema, additional shops and new restaurants
As part of the revamp, the park will be renamed Sovereign Central. PruPIM is delivering the £14m project on behalf of The Prudential Assurance Company. Holder Mathias has designed the new buildings and create a fresh new image for the retail park and Mike Swain, technical director at Holder Mathias, said: “Our design aim is to create a contemporary and exciting retail and leisure development that will revitalise the retail park and provide a landmark centre forSovereignHarbour.
“Integrating the two retail blocks gave us the opportunity to create a bold, new, building, which will provide a much-needed central axis and focal point in a currently under-utilised area of the site. The cinema will be relocated to the first floor of this building and on the ground floor there will be a vibrant, covered pedestrian street, with new cafés and restaurants. This will also enable us to convert the existing cinema back into retail units to provide space for new occupiers.”
