Wolverhampton's £55m Westside development showcased at Parliament event
A major £55 million development transforming Wolverhampton's city centre has been showcased tonight.
The Westside development will change the face of the city, according to civic leaders backing the scheme.
Urban & Civic, based in London, beat off competition from 10 other leading UK developers and investors to be named as preferred developer.
The company is now working on the details of a five-year programme to build a multi-screen cinema, restaurants, bars, hotel, multi-storey car park, apartments and public space in two phases.
The announcement came tonight at a Houses of Parliament event showcasing the city of Wolverhampton to a room full of high-profile developers and investors.
