Occupying the most prominent site, Howells is just a stone’s throw away from the Principality Stadium and St David’s II. The vision for Howells is for it to become a new global hub for the city, acting as the catalyst for further redevelopment along St Mary St. Howells will home a vibrant mix of uses from hotel, office, commercial, retail and leisure.
The plans include a large central courtyard linking into Cardiff Market, along with public realm improvements with biophilic design at its heart. The occupier mix will be carefully curated whereby the shops, restaurants, residents and office occupiers complement each other. The ambition is for Howells to be full of energy on Monday mornings as well as a Saturday evening.
The key targets for the next 12 months are as follows; fully consent and out of planning, creation of the new public courtyard, agree terms with a hotelier and find a partner for the 170 BTR units.Â
