MJ Gleeson's northern construction division has secured a large-scale mixed residential and retail development in Sheffield worth £35m.

The development, known as West One, which Gleeson describes as the largest in Sheffield for 10 years, will incorporate 39,500m2 of land at the heart of the Devonshire Quarter in the city centre.

City Estates is the developer and Carey Jones is the architect.

The development will be built in three phases over two years. West One will provide up to 475 luxury apartments, underground parking, a retail area and a health and fitness centre.

Gleeson regional director Neil Robertson said the scheme would contribute to the city's "already affluent and cosmopolitan feel".
