Built for Capita
as part of the Capita/Blackburn regeneration programme and sold
to private Jersey based investor.
The building is a landmark in the city landscape and its design
has focussed on the need for a building that is more legible
from a pedestrian scale and perspective. This design philosophy
will come to the fore at night where a proposed backlit art
feature will act as a beacon to the visitor descending into
Blackburn.
Graham Cowley, Managing Director of Capita Property Consultancy
in Blackburn sees the centre as a vital ingredient in the
renewal of Blackburn city centre:
"The Centre will be a tremendous boost for this part
of the city - a landmark building that emphasises Capita and
the Council's commitment to creating new jobs and an increased
spirit of civic pride and confidence in the area.
We are delighted to be providing a building that makes a
positive contribution to the city of Blackburn as well as
being an efficient and attractive office environment in tune
with the needs of our own organisation."
