Situated around 1.8 acres of new public space St Vincent’s Works, a new vibrant city quarter will sit at the centre of the TQEZ and Bristol University new campus, within minutes of Bristol Temple meads.

The residential component of the site will include a mixture of tenures, discount market rent, affordable rent, and market rent homes, providing opportunities for people to live in a sustainable, central location close to key employment areas and a major transport hub.

New routes for pedestrians and cyclists will connect the existing street network with the new public realm within the site including a new canal walkway (behind the retained listed canal wall) to the central public square, inviting residents and visitors to enjoy the opportunity to occupy the south facing bars and restaurants close to the waterfront.

Start-up studio offices are proposed at ground floor of the residential development blocks, further activating the building frontages, creating a vibrant but safe place to live work and play.

A water taxi & bus stop will be situated adjacent to the central public space to maximise the transport connections to the city centre from the site.
