Plans for a further 80,000 sq ft of innovation space have been submitted for Liverpool’s Sci-Tech Daresbury campus.
The £20m development – Violet Phase 2 – is being proposed on vacant land at the north end of the campus in Halton. The £17.8m Phase 1, which completed in January, features 43,000 sq ft of grade-A office and innovation space across three buildings.
The first new building in the proposed scheme, V4, measures 23,000 sq ft and will expand the availability of Sci-Tech Daresbury’s grade-A office accommodation with larger floorplates of up to 6,000 sq ft. It has been conceived with companies in sectors such as advanced engineering, healthcare, digital technology, and sustainability in mind.
V5, meanwhile, is around 60,000 sq ft and based around dedicated CL2-enabled laboratory space along with areas to encourage collaboration, including an accessible roof terrace.
Both buildings have been designed to BREEAM Excellent standard by Seven Architecture and sustainable features are included throughout.
The development will have green roofs and has been designed to achieve up to a 25% biodiversity net gain.
