£210m regeneration vision includes new entertainment venue, art gallery, museum and food hall

Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios has been appointed to deliver a £210m regeneration vision for Huddersfield that aims to provide a new “cultural heart” for the West Yorkshire town.

The practice will work with Turner and Townsend and Arup on the 10-year Huddersfield Blueprint to transform the town centre with a new 1,200-2,500 capacity entertainment venue, an art gallery, a museum, a new library and a food hall.

Huddersfield’s cultural heart plans also include a new multi-storey car park, and could be expanded to deliver new restaurants and bars, hotels, offices and even homes.
