Steel-framed offices aid Blackpool regeneration

Structural steelwork erection is nearing completion on a £100M, 19,500m², highly sustainable office building in Blackpool town centre, which will become a new regional home for the Civil Service.

Working on behalf of the local council, developer Muse and main contractor Vinci Building, Leach Structural Steelwork is fabricating, supplying and erecting the project’s steelwork.

More than 3,000 public servants will relocate to the seven-storey building, when it completes, which is scheduled to be in the first quarter of 2025.

Aiming to achieve a BREEAM ‘Outstanding’ rating, the offices will bring new people to the town, boosting trade for local businesses, retailers, restaurants, cafes and leisure facilities, alongside a wealth of new job opportunities.
