Clarion Housing Group’s development arm Latimer has appointed GRAHAM to deliver the first phase of its Dyecoats mixed-use development in Leeds.

The appointment follows Latimer’s approval of its Building Safety Regulator Stage 2 sign off, marking a key milestone in the scheme.

Jonathan Hall, Managing Director at GRAHAM, said: “This appointment celebrates Dyecoats being one of the first new build developments to receive Building Safety Act Gateway 2 approval, showcasing our deep understanding of the gateway process to deliver the highest standards of safety and quality in construction.

“This project will play a pivotal role in regenerating the area, and we look forward to bringing Latimer’s vision to life.”

GRAHAM will deliver the first three buildings of the Dyecoats development on Kirkstall Road transforming a 13-acre brownfield site along the River Aire.

Phase 1 of the project will include new residential buildings providing 434 mixed-tenure homes. It will include a vibrant food hall, new high quality public realm with access to the River Aire and a new north south connection across the river. Ultimately, the wider scheme will deliver up to 1,799 homes.

Richard Cook, Chief Development Officer at Clarion Housing Group, said: “Successfully securing Building Safety Regulator approval combined with the appointment of GRAHAM, are significant milestones for Latimer as we continue to build momentum across our affordable housing programme in the North of England.

“Our flagship Dyecoats development in Leeds highlights our continued commitment to delivering sustainable communities and contributing to tackling the national housing crisis. We look forward to Partnering with GRAHAM to ensure our vision of a high-quality, sustainable development becomes a reality.”
