GALLIFORD TRY AWARDED £105M RESIDENTIAL CONTRACT
Galliford Try, the leading UK construction group, announces that its Building business has signed a £105m contract to build a major new build-to-rent residential scheme in Leeds.
The 665-home development is being constructed on behalf of Highline Investments at the Monk Bridge site to the south west of Leeds city centre, accessed from Whitehall Road.
There will be a mix of one, two and three-bedroom apartments across five different blocks, which will vary from 12 to 22 storeys in height. In addition, the adjacent railway arches will be refurbished to accommodate retail and hospitality units.
Bill Hocking, Chief Executive of Galliford Try, commented: "We are delighted to be able to start work on such a prestigious development in the heart of Leeds. This scheme is a significant investment in the current economic environment and our excellent track record in the private rental sector has led Highline to place their trust in Galliford Try to deliver for their customers."
