Southern Green has been involved in this complex development since the inception of the project providing landscape masterplanning, urban realm and detailed landscape design.

Stephenson Quarter was where Stephenson designed and built The Rocket so the site has a rich industrial heritage while also being located in a strategic part of central Newcastle adjacent to Central Station.

The evolving mixed use masterplan includes re-purposed listed buildings and new-builds, drawn together by a cohesive series of high quality public open spaces.  

The first phases of the masterplan are now complete which include a four star Crowne Plaza hotel, office buildings, The Rocket multi storey car park, Boiler Shop events space, North East Futures University Technical College and Hawthorn Square.
