Mace Submits Plans For Sheffield Mixed-Use Development

Plans have been submitted to build a new multi-million pound mixed-use residential and student development in Sheffield.

A total of 247 studios/flats, along with 658 student beds, will be developed on a site on Hoyle Street in the centre of the city.

Designed by Jefferson Sheard Architects, the project will be delivered by Mace and includes delivering a mix of studios, cluster flats and townhouses which also benefit from dedicated, private open space.


Overall, the proposals form part of Mace's student development portfolio which, together with Sheffield, will see the company deliver more than 2,000 student beds in the next three years including consented sites in Cardiff, Exeter and Oxford.

David Grover, Mace's Chief Operating Officer for Development, said: "We have worked hard to design a scheme which places Sheffield's industrial heritage at the heart of our proposals. As well as bringing forward modern student housing and new homes for Sheffield, the designs are sympathetic to the local area and will give the iconic cementation furnace a new lease of life as the centre piece of the site."
