Bishopgate Gardens Build | The Heaton Group

The Apartments

This ambitious scheme is a flagship residential development for The Heaton Group and the City of Preston, comprising of 130 luxury apartments, impressive communal spaces with residents lounge and 24 hour concierge, communal rooftop gardens and 7 retail units overlooking the plaza including, Barber shop, Florist and Deli Store.

The exterior will be clad in distinctive, contemporary black and gold aluminium panels, transforming the building into a recognisable landmark standing out amongst its neighbours. Landscape Architects have thoughtfully designed both the plaza at the entrance of the building and the show-stopping roof gardens with breathtaking city views.

Location

Recommendations made as early as 2011 resulted in Preston City Council and Lancashire County Council working together to boost the infrastructure, economic growth and ease transport congestion in order to become more business friendly.

To date there has been investment into the area of over £434 million covering Preston and South Ribble, with future forecasts predicting a further 20,000 new jobs and over 20,000 new homes. This will provide a huge boost to the local economy which is expected to grow by over £1billion in the next 10 years for development and will be the hub where people connect for years to come.
