Housing development proposed for Hove seafront

16th February 2016

A 17-storey tower has been proposed for a new housing development in Sackville Gardens, Hove. The development will include 107 properties with a potential to create a number of affordable homes, as well as a basement car park and bicycle storage.

Work on the new development could start later this year subject to planning permission with the block opening in 2018.

The modern building will have windows of different shapes and sizes all the way around as well as floor to ceiling glass on the top floors, looking visually striking along Hove seafront.
 
Tom Shaw, development director (south) for Hyde says they want to build a scheme that people like and can be proud of. He said: “We have listened and acted on the feedback from local residents and councillors. Hyde is committed to continuing to work closely with the local planning authority and other stakeholders to meet local housing need, help deliver local economic growth and to regenerate a prominent site on the Hove seafront which has sat derelict for a decade.”

The properties will be built on the site of the former Sackville Hotel and will stand at 56m tall, becoming the largest building on Hove seafront.
