Project description
A successful PROJECT application has been
made by the Director of ISIS Waterside Regeneration in association with
MADE for an artist to join the design team and develop an urban design
scheme for the Warwick Bar area of Eastside in Birmingham. The design
team will include an architect, ecologist and an artist and will progress
an outline planning scheme to be registered for approval at the end
of 2006. The project brings together a partnership of public private
interests of British Waterways, AMEC Investments Ltd and Morley Fund
Management. Project endorsement has been made also by the Arts Ambassador
for Eastside Regeneration, a former urban designer with Birmingham City
Council who promotes the arts at the heart of this regeneration scheme
and the ability of both ISIS and MADE to achieve a viable scheme.
