Trio of regeneration schemes set for Jewellery Quarter

A commercial property firm is paving the way to redevelop Birmingham’s historic Jewellery Quarter through a trio of major regeneration schemes.

Siddall Jones, based in the Jewellery Quarter, have completed three significant deals that it says should “herald the creation of 21st century homes” at three sites in the city.

Siddall Jones has agreed the sale of a large site fronting Caroline Street to London Development Group in a deal worth £2.45m.

The proposed scheme is expected to provide a mixed use development with 45 residential units and commercial area on the ground floor.

The company was also behind the sale of the 3.5 acre Mr Tyre site on Pitsford Street to Blackswan Developments.

The scheme will provide around 400 residential units as well as high end retail and a ticket station for the Jewellery Quarter Metro and train station.

Siddall Jones was also responsible for the sale of a former jewellery manufacturing premises on Camden Street to Raglan Homes which will lead to the creation of a residential lead mixed use scheme.

Edward Siddall Jones, director of Siddall Jones, said: “These are exciting times for the future of Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter.

“These developments are a demonstration of confidence in the Jewellery Quarter and the city as a whole.”

“Hopefully these schemes will act as a catalyst for more regeneration in the Jewellery Quarter and secure its future of Birmingham leading urban village,” he added.
