Derby MADE is intended to provide a safe place for all communities to come together. With 60,000 sq ft of public and retail spaces, we can create a place for people to meet, eat, stay and enjoy. Derby MADE could include:
We think Derby MADE can be the city’s catalyst for social and cultural regeneration. The principal driver of footfall to Market Place. Derby MADE aims to bring critical new infrastructure, complementary activity, scale and over half a million new customers to the square. Market Place would operate as one hub, with community, retail and culture working together to a common goal.
Free, open for all, Derby MADE would fill a need for a safe home for the city’s young people to work, study and play, and for generations to come together. A place where lines separating culture, commerce and community are blurred.
Derby MADE can be a unique co-existence of private, third sector and local authority innovation.
