West Northamptonshire Council has further advanced its partnership with the English Cities Fund (ECF) for the regeneration of the Greyfriars area in Northampton.

The Greyfriars regeneration area covers 25 acres and includes the former Greyfriars Bus Station, demolished in 2015, as well as the Mayorhold and Victoria Street Car Parks, Corn Exchange, Belgrave House, and East and West Islands. The Corn Exchange will become an arts and culture hub, while Belgrave House will offer opportunities for an innovative workplace and business incubator. The regeneration will also feature a new outdoor Amphitheatre to anchor landmark new public spaces. The new development will include homes, shops, cafes, and restaurants, contributing to a lively neighborhood. It is expected to drive an additional GBP 21 million (US$ 25 million) in spending within Northampton, stimulating the local economy, particularly in the town center.
