Full steam ahead for our Placefirst

It’s been a busy week of news for our client Placefirst, a developer and operator of rental homes. The company has completed a new scheme in Lancashire dubbed Bay Mill, and has also completed the final stage of its iconic Welsh Streets regeneration project in Liverpool – part of a collaborative masterplan conceived in 2016 between Placefirst and Liverpool City Council.

 

Commenting on the completion of Welsh Streets, David Mawson, chief executive of Placefirst, said: “Rooted in the area’s history, the significance of Welsh Streets to the local community and the city of Liverpool cannot be understated.

 

“Our mission to transform this once-neglected area into a neighbourhood that instils pride and delivers lasting social and economic benefits has driven this ambitious eight-year project.

 

“As we prepare to welcome residents to the final phase, Welsh Streets stands as a testament to the importance of community-centred development. Working closely with existing residents, the completed neighbourhood celebrates the area’s history whilst reflecting the ambitions of today’s community, fit to deliver longstanding value for generations to come.”
