Steelwork is being installed at Preston's £45m+ Animate leisure complex 👷
It’s the latest milestone in the £45 million+ scheme, one of six major projects planned under Preston’s Harris Quarter Towns Fund Investment Programme.
An estimated 1,150 tonnes of steel are being used for the new steel frame of Animate, the flagship development of the Harris Quarter. The frame is being erected in multiple phases, with each section built sequentially rather than being constructed floor by floor because of the city centre location of the scheme. . Construction of Animate – on the site of the former indoor market and car park – is expected to complete in late 2024.
“The Animate complex has already attracted well-respected national leisure brands, that will create an impressive offering of activities to increase footfall to the city, bringing additional economic benefits.L-R: Nick Hague, John Chesworth, Adrian Phillips, Chris Hayward
