St. James Street, Brighton
“a cleverly integrated, well-designed modern development adjacent to a Conservation
Area, producing a wide range of essential downtown accommodation”. Sussex Heritage
Trust Awards judges 2011
Probably the narrowest new building in Brighton has in-filled an unsightly gap in
the historic St James Street frontage and enhanced the conservation area. Three apartments,
a new shop and a mews house have been squeezed in to a narrow slot in St James Street.
The project completes the regeneration of a neglected back street, the first phase
of which provided six affordable houses.
