We are excited about this one, working together with Kala Sangam to redevelop a magnificent building ready for Bradford’s City of Culture in 2025.

The plans will see the company take over the ground of the iconic building, putting in a new 200 seat theatre, creating four new studio spaces, opening up a new prominent, easy to find front entrance and installing a new lift to give access to all floors.

Work begins in May 2024 and will be completed by the summer of 2025 as a major milestone in the City of Culture programme for Bradford.

Richard Walsh, Director at Halliday Clark said, “Halliday Clark Architects are delighted to be contributing a modern chapter to the rich history of this building, creating healthy shared spaces and functions which speak for our time, and the people who will use them. The redevelopment at Kala Sangam will enhance connections, both literal and symbolic strengthening links to the city and the Cathedral Conservation area as well as with the community, and our shared culture and heritage.”
