Civic Trust Awards 2009: received ‘Winner’ award
“The scheme has filled a retail gap without resorting to a standard mall, and provides a well used civic facility. The showpiece dome in the centre of the scheme provides an unusual viewing area which has become an iconic image on the city skyline.”
BCSC – British Confederation of Shopping Centres 2008 (London): Gold Award, In-Town Retail Scheme category
“This is an engaging development in an area of Belfast desperate for change. The scheme has created a unique retail and food and leisure offer, with innovative design spread over two levels. Anchored by a 18,500 sq m House of Fraser Store, the scheme has attracted a formidable retail line up including top fashion brands housed in well designed units. With its unique central viewing platform linking all levels, the scheme offers accessible and inviting integration.”
