The vision

The vision of the New Tyne West Development Company is to revive an area of the West End of Newcastle through a £265 million investment in a housing led construction programme.

Sweeping down to the River Tyne and with views across the valley towards the Angel of the North will be 1,800 new energy efficient homes, built to meet the needs of today’s working families.

Designed to take advantage of the sloped site, The Rise will also incorporate areas of public open space, terraced gardens, walkways, green links to existing residential areas, a neighbourhood centre, shops and office space.

An area steeped in history promises to be home to a diverse, sustainable and forward looking community.
