Consultation period for 'landmark' office block opens this week
A landmark office development with views over the Tyne will be discussed at consultation events this week.
The latest update to the Stephenson Quarter in the city could see a £137m mixed-use development site tipped to be an important employment site which has attracted Atom Bank and 600 jobs.
Plans for the new office development can be discussed from Wednesday, February 4 from 3pm to 7pm and then Thursday, February 5 from 1pm to 6pm at Central Square Atrium, Forth Street, NE1 3PJ.

Following consultation, a planning application is expected to be submitted to the planning authority, and like all applications will be subject to an independent planning process.
The site is earmarked for One Founders Place, former industrial land behind Newcastle Central Station which also features the historic Boiler Shop where Robert Stephenson built steam locomotives.
Other office buildings are already open across the area including the Pattern Shop, which opened in 2024.
The building will have multiple outdoor terraces offering panoramic views across the city. It will open onto a new public square and improve access and connection between the site and Newcastle Central Station.
