Earlier this year, the Central Birmingham 2040 ‘Shaping Our City Together’ engagement was launched, kick-starting the exciting conversation on the future development of Central Birmingham over the next 20 years.

As such, Birmingham City Council has outlined a vision for change in the central part of Birmingham. Shaping our City outlines the context of the area, key challenges and opportunities known as the Our Future City Plan: Central Birmingham 2040 (OFCP).

In the second part of this ‘Coffee Cast’ special on the OFCP, we visit the Gast Street Basin – the heart of Britain’s Canals network – and talk you through our ideas for implementing the vision outlined in the OFCP, and specifically, what this means for Build to Rent development in this part of the city.
