From one-bedroom studios to over 200 apartments, the Craven Scaffolding team has been hard at work on this build-to-rent development in the heart of the city centre
The Downtown Victoria North development, located on a former gasworks site near the Marble Arch pub, will feature four apartment blocks with 237 homes. This build-to-rent project will offer a range of amenities, including a park, penthouses, a gym, parking, transport links, and a residential lounge. The development is set to be completed by late 2025.
Scaffolding
Over a dozen members of our workforce have been diligently working on-site, demonstrating unwavering commitment to delivering exceptional results. Starting each day at 7:30 AM, the team has successfully completed four apartment blocks so far. However, progress on this extensive project has not been without its challenges.
The site supervisor faces the most significant responsibility – ensuring the safe and precise execution of our design plans. Coordinating the erection of scaffolding for a project of this scale is complex and requires expert oversight. The presence of an experienced site manager has been crucial in navigating these intricacies. Despite managing a demanding schedule, the ability to swiftly devise on-the-spot solutions has contributed significantly to achieving outstanding outcomes for our client.
Through continued daily efforts, we are poised to bring this project to a successful close in the near future.
“This exciting high-rise scaffolding project is our largest to date!
Despite the numerous logistical challenges, from transportation issues to build requirements, everyone has truly come together to make this project a success.
Its been an incredible team effort!”
