Construction work set to start on £50m Swansea city centre development

Construction work is set to start in the near future on a £50m Swansea city centre development featuring more than 700 student flats, a recent news report in the local media has been able to suggest.

The complex, on the current Mariner car park site, will be made up 725 student flats above a number of shops and other businesses on the ground floor. The 21-storey, 72 metre-high building will be the second tallest in Swansea and among the largest in Wales.

Cllr Rob Stewart, Swansea Council leader, said: "This scheme, funded by the private sector, is another major boost for Swansea city centre as we continue to make significant progress with our regeneration plans for the benefit of residents and visitors.

"It will generate a different feel in High Street as more people live there, creating increased spending in city centre businesses, boosting the diversification of High Street and greatly improving the sense of arrival and vibrancy people experience outside Swansea railway station.

"This project, in combination with our regeneration plans for St David’s, the Civic Centre and Kingsway, shows how determined we are to transform the city centre’s fortunes, support existing businesses, open up new jobs and attract further investment in future."
