Southwest St Helier Waterfront
A VISION TO TRANSFORM SOUTHWEST ST HELIER, RECONNECTING THE WATERFRONT AND THE TOWN
Our aspirations is to play our part in delivering a greener, safer and more vibrant St Helier, which creates a compelling reason to live, work and play. A Waterfront that the people of Jersey can be proud of, and that is recognised internationally as an exemplar in sustainability, landscaping and architecture.
We have developed a new landscape-led Visionary Framework to significantly regenerate the Southwest St Helier (SWSH) Waterfront into a well-connected, highly sustainable mixed-use development.
TO BUILD A BETTER JERSEY
JDC is focussed on creating quality and engaging places that are active, interesting and visually attractive, where people want to live, work and play.
The health, happiness and well-being of local people is crucial to an area’s success and improving quality of life. Creating extensive landscaped areas and public amenities is central to our vision for the Waterfront.
THE SCHEME WILL DELIVER:
-
A climate-resilient neighbourhood with improved accessibility and connectivity
-
A network of pedestrian friendly streets and green spaces
-
Significant new indoor community spaces including art, culture, sport and leisure facilities
-
984 new homes
-
Over 65,000m2 of vibrant fully accessible public space
-
Opportunities for habitat creation and biodiversity enhancements.
56% OF THE PROPOSED WATERFRONT WILL BE OPEN SPACE
The public realm will be a canvas for everyday life; a place to know your neighbours, a place to spend your weekends and a place for the island communities to gather for events and festivals.
