What We Do

Housing, Land and Development

Accelerating new housing and regenerating our places through bringing new resources to re-mediate land, and in major place-based schemes like the Northumberland line, North Shields and Newcastle city centre.

It does this through major investments in brownfield land remediation and the creation of a strategic pipeline of development sites and growth corridors.
