NMGM CONSERVATION CENTRE – WHITECHAPEL

Promenade devised the scheme to convert the former Midland Railway Goods Depot, a 70,000 sq. ft. Grade II* Listed Victoria Warehouse, into a National Museums & Galleries on Merseyside (NMGM) Conservation Centre.

Due to the vagaries of the grant regulations, a grant could not be awarded for this scheme. We carried out all the initial predevelopment work and submitted a grant application on behalf of NMGM. NMGM retained us to act as development consultant throughout the scheme which was completed in 1996 with a development value of £7m. The project is one of the largest of its type anywhere in the world and in 1998 the Conservation Centre was awarded European Museum of the Year.

Alliances

Our aim is to develop a true partnership with all parties involved in a project and can often resolve complex urban regeneration issues by harmonising a range of potentially divergent interests. We seek to understand each party’s individual needs, recognise their role and complement their input. In this way we have created a range of strong private and public sector partnerships and are constantly widening our relationships to create new business opportunities.

Values

We believe in creating the right space in the right location and applying best practice throughout. Our aim is always to anticipate new property trends and patterns of commerce. We also understand how to release best value by re-evaluating the key elements of space and location in the light of the latest requirements and technological progress. This stimulates imaginative solutions and ensures we create space that fully meets the user’s needs.
