Proposals for Lowesmoor Wharf are set to completely transform the 3.2-acre site with 330,000 sq ft of housing, office and retail space

Situated off Lowesmoor Terrace, the central Worcester site currently contains a mix of industrial and warehousing units.

Designed by architect Apt, the proposed scheme features seven buildings containing 271 apartments, 30,000 sq ft of offices, 10,000 sq ft of retail and food space.

Matt Chandler, development director at Godwin Developments, said: “Our vision is to deliver a lifestyle-led destination that is similar to other standout schemes – such as Gloucester Docks and Eagles Works in Oxford.

“We plan to transform the former canals into water features, paying homage to the rich canal history of Worcester and the wider Midlands region. These will provide a focal point of the development and its new waterside apartments, cafes and restaurants, proposed as a part of the scheme.”

Jason Geen, Studio Leader at Apt, said: “The project is a ‘regeneration masterplan’ in the truest sense of the word, bringing to life a long overlooked, but important centrally-located site in Worcester.”
