Description
Lancaster City Council is seeking quotations from suitably qualified and experienced Building Surveyors to review existing condition surveys and undertake a site inspection of Centenary House, Regent Road, Morecambe.
Centenary House is a former Co-operative department store located in Morecambe's West End. The property comprises a largely vacant five-storey building (basement, ground, first, second and partial third floor/dormer level) extending to approximately 2,583-2,700 sq m Gross Internal Area. The building has been largely vacant for over 30 years, with part of the ground floor occupied by a retail tenant.
The Council's longer-term objective is to dispose of the building to a Registered Provider/Housing Association for conversion and redevelopment as affordable housing.
The Council has secured Brownfield Land Release Fund (BLRF) grant funding to address abnormal development costs that currently affect the viability of redevelopment. The available budget for the remediation works is approximately £450,000, meaning prioritisation of works is essential.
The Council has commissioned a significant programme of surveys, investigations and specialist reports. Whilst these reports identify defects and suggest remedial actions, the Council now requires a Building Surveyor to review all available information, inspect the property and develop a prioritised remediation strategy.
The appointed Building Surveyor will effectively act as the lead designer for the proposed repair and remediation works.
