THE COOLESTCORNER OFLEEDS

Named as the “coolest corner in Leeds”

(Yorkshire Evening Post), the Holbeck area

has asserted itself as a successful and

unique destination to work, live and socialise,

of particular appeal to the creative industries.

With all the benefits of the City on the

doorstep, it creates a village feel within a

sustainable community taking full advantage

of the character of Leeds’ heritage.

The Mint is also closely located to Granary

Wharf and all its bars and restaurants as

well as the southern entrance of Leeds City

Station set to be complete by the end

of 2015.

Canal side cycle paths run close to The Mint for those who

prefer the greener commute to work. Quick coffee or lazy lunch, Holbeck Urban Village has it all.

The buzz of Leeds hippest community, The Round

Foundry, is a short 5 minute walk away.

The new south entrance to Leeds City Station

will make the journey to and from work even

more convenient.

Granary Wharf is an excellent place to

spend a lunch hour or dine out after work.

L O C AT I O N

Situated on Sweet Street in the ever-flourishing

Holbeck Urban Village, The Mint has excellent

LOCAL INWARDINVESTMENT

The Round Foundry in the heart of the Holbeck Urban

Village where almost 2,000 people are employed has

been acquired for £31.5m by Hermes Real Estate

Investment Management. The development, which

comprises 155,811 sq ft (14,476 sq m) of office,

restaurant and residential space over 5.65 acres is

located adjacent to The Mint. The Round Foundry,

which is an integral part of Holbeck Urban Village to

the south of Leeds Station and the River Aire, is known

as a creative hub. The development encompasses a

cluster of new and listed buildings, the Round Foundry

Media Centre, Marshalls Mill (a Grade II*-listed former

flax mill) and Marshalls Court.

Earlier this year, Carillion was named as development

partner for Tower Works area of Holbeck Urban

Village, Leeds. The £80m development plan located

close to The Mint will breathe new life into this iconic

area of the city. Carillion has been selected by the

Homes & Communities Agency as the preferred

development partner to deliver a new prestigious

mixed use development at Tower Works, a key

development site within Holbeck Urban Village, Leeds.

Plans to bring this historic pin factory site in Leeds back

to life has taken a huge step forward during October

2015, with construction firm Carillion signing a contract

to transform the 1.17 hectare site at Tower Works.

The site at Leeds’s South Bank will be transformed

into 90,000sq ft of office space, 24,000sq ft of retail,

restaurant and bar space and a mix of apartments and

townhouses on the doorstep of The Mint.

The regeneration of Leeds’ South Bank is happening

very quickly, which covers the area from Leeds Dock

to Holbeck Urban Village, and includes the Tetley

Brewery as well as the development of the South

entrance to Leeds Train Station. The former Tetley Brewery site has been sold by Carlsberg UK for an

undisclosed sum during October 2015. The brewing

giant has announced that Vastint, the property division

of the IKEA Group, has bought the prized 22-acre

plot in the city’s South Bank. The landmark site was

home to the famous Tetley Brewery for 189 years

Vastint has confirmed it has plans to bring forward

the redevelopment of the site in line with the aims of

Leeds City Council’s South Bank Planning Statement

to create a vibrant, residential and business community

with the prospect of a city centre park.
