Last night Opus Land came home champions, having won “Commercial Development of the Year” award at this year’s RICS awards for their Kingswood Lakeside development in Cannock.
Opus Land worked in partnership with The First Choice Group, local stakeholders and were granted funding from Birmingham and Solihull LEP. The scheme comprises 100,000 sq ft of industrial accommodation on what was previously an open cast mine.
Opus Land secured grant funding for a ground treatment package consisting of Dynamic Compaction to bring the former open cast mine back into economic use.
Judges of the awards described the development as a “fine example of an experienced developer working in conjunction with a knowledgeable tenant, a proactive local authority and LEP, to provide a first rate commercial facility to safeguard and indeed expand local jobs and regenerate a former open cast mine”.
Opus Land’s Kingswood Lakeside was up against some stiff competition with the likes of Deloitte Birmingham, Touch Base Pears, Selly Oak and The Lewis Building, Birmingham.
Congratulations to Opus Land!
