Apollo 69/6: Construction update
It’s only been two months since the Manse Opus team celebrated the breaking ground of Prospero Ansty Park’s newest industrial scheme, Apollo 69/6, but McLaren are already making fantastic progress.
The steels are currently underway for the 241,000 sq ft scheme, which is due to complete in Q4 this year. The new scheme also calls for updates to the road infrastructure to provide easy access to the site, which McLaren have begun to facilitate. Kerbs and pathway edging is due to be installed over the next few weeks.
When complete, each of the three units will be available for both B2 and B8 uses, offering complete flexibility for potential occupiers looking to relocate to the centre of the UK’s manufacturing heartland.
Opus Land and Savills Investment Management purchased a brownfield site, which was formerly a Ford Factory car park and obtained planning for a 60,000 sq. ft retail space, located just 0.5 miles from the town centre and 15 minutes’ walk from the train station.
Together with their joint venture partner, Manse LLP, and on behalf of Rolls-Royce, Opus Land are delivering more than 2 million sq. ft of space at Prospero, Ansty, starting with a 490,000 sq. ft manufacturing facility for Meggitt PLC.
Opus Land and Bridges completed an 153,800 sq. ft unit with 16 loading doors at the Kingwood Lakeside Business Park in Cannock.
A 160,950 sq. ft multi-let office, three miles from Birmingham city centre which underwent a comprehensive refurbishment programme by Opus Land and was sold for £24.25m.
