The Cauldwell Street gateway to Bedford town centre is on the up.
A new-build block of 72 apartments is on the way, which will turn a previously neglected corner into an attractive gateway.
Compass Land & Developments have announced that contracts have been exchanged for the 1 and 2 bedroom homes.
Meanwhile work is underway on the refurbishment of the single-storey construction block on the Bedford College site opposite.
The tower block on the corner was reopened with a high quality new look as the Brundtland Building a few years ago – but the adjoining single-storey section was not included.
Now catching up, this latest project is part of the on-going upgrading of the college campus, which represents millions of pounds of investment in providing world class buildings for the “Best in Britain” college.
Cauldwell Street further benefited from the development of the Bedford Free School which has now a penthouse hall overlooking the town and highlighting the great quality of education for 11-16-year-olds.
