An ambitious expansion of an innovative workspace development for high-tech industries at the heart of Space City Leicester is starting to take shape.

Leicester City Council is expanding its existing Dock and Dock 2 workspace hub with two new Dock-style office buildings and a terrace of high-quality manufacturing spaces.

The steel frame of the first of the new buildings is now in place, with construction of the entire scheme due to be complete by spring 2024.

The two new offices will provide space for up to 45 businesses across 4,000sqm, with the purpose-built industrial units providing an additional 2,000sqm of workspace across nine units.

A range of energy efficiency measures will mean the new buildings will be net carbon zero. These include roof-mounted photovoltaic panels, air source heat pumps, super insulation, and low-energy LED lighting. The new

Buildings will require no gas heating. Twelve chargers will also be installed for electric vehicles in a new parking area.
