Скачать или смотреть ‘A historic moment for Wakefield’: The Ridings shopping centre set for major regeneration

Senior councillors have agreed to buy The Ridings shopping centre in Wakefield to make way for major regeneration of the city centre.
The Labour-run authority plans to demolish the ageing mall to build new homes, leisure facilities and spaces for events as part of a project which is expected to take more than a decade to complete.

The scheme also involves bulldozing a number of 1960s residential tower blocks as part of the creation of a new ‘Cathedral Quarter.’

Jack Hemingway, the council’s deputy leader and portfolio holder for regeneration and economic growth, told a meeting on Tuesday: “This is a historic moment for Wakefield."
