[13/06/24] 43 affordable homes on behalf of Newport City Homes at St. Johns Crescent, Rogerstone
We’re pleased to see the delivery of 43 affordable homes on behalf of Newport City Homes at St. Johns Crescent, Rogerstone receive full support from the Newport Planning Committee in June.
The proposals include the demolition of 23 existing flats and their redevelopment alongside the development of a parcel of land formerly a care home. The proposals will provide much needed affordable homes and regeneration to the area whilst utilising brownfield land in the settlement boundary.
We worked closely with NCC planners and highway engineers to arrive at a design solution which balances a number of constraints at the site and are pleased with the outcome.
