does make you think what the land would be worth for housing ?

The housing on the old b block aint anything special , bog standard new build estate

very likely to leave BPV I think. been considering alternative sites for a good few years now, and the past year will have just reinforced that theres no need for such a huge site

Land to the front at benton already has a planning application in for housing.

I'm thinking the sheer size and potential rather than what the houses are like ...I agree they look meh but an awful lot of meh

Agree, if the whole site was available they could build a lot bigger and better

I don’t work there and have no plans to....but it’s certainly being considered

The era of a job for life in the civil service is long gone. Transient workforce, home working and just a token gesture of jobs in the north. The ministry as it was known was the work place of choice at one time, had to pass exams to get in, now they just about let anyone in. It’s going down the pan.

I hope you manage your 15 years, you may also want a plan B.

up next to the life centre just off the train station.it's looking highly likely according to a lad I know who works for her Maj estates

Is the Stephenson Quarter site or the arena?

Igloo are developer parter on Stephenson quarter igloo Regeneration | PfP igloo announces new partnership in Newcastle

Didn’t think arena was in the running however think the Newby scheme does include commercial space:

Quayside West | Newby - Luxury homes

Coming soon

www.newby.co.uk

Must admit thought it was a shoe in for the pilgrim st site especially as construction has now started.
