Build-to-rent development would deliver 364 flats and ground-floor commercial space

Drawn up for a joint venture between US global investment adviser Angelo Gordon and the UK firm Ridgeback Group, the 15-storey scheme – named Kangaroo Works in honour of a former tool factory that once occupied the site – is part of Sheffield’s Heart of the City II masterplan.
