town centre office

Work has started on site to build Walsall Housing Group’s (whg) new £6.5million town centre office. Our vision is to provide a modern, open and flexible working environment befitting whg’s status as a leading company in Walsall.

The new Town Centre Office project will represent the successful merging of business accommodation needs and whg’s environmental conscience. It makes sound business sense for the development to reduce whg’s carbon emissions and environmental impact.

The 4,000 sq m office will include various sustainable features including a sedum roof, rainwater harvesting, photovoltaic and solar thermal renewable energy systems and air-source heat pump technology.

The new building will achieve the BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) excellence standard, which will be testament to its sustainability.

Contractor Sisk is building the new office for whg. The site forms part of the new Walsall Office Corridor and it is hoped the new office will kickstart the area’s regeneration. The office is due to be completed before the end of 2011.

It will bring colleagues currently located across several sites together, including those based at Tameway Tower in Bridge Street. whg will retain a strong presence across the borough through its network of local offices.

After a competitive tender process Bisset Adams were appointed as the Architects.
