GENECON advised the Homes & Communities Agency and Sheffield
City Council on the case to Government for funding to support
Hammerson UK's proposals for Sheffield's New Retail Quarter -
'Sevenstone'. The scheme is a flagship project under Creative
Sheffield's city centre masterplan and is critical to Sheffield's
ongoing revival as a key regional economic driver. We were selected
from the HCA's national economic consultants panel to lead a full
HM Treasury 'Green Book' appraisal of the scheme, which has stalled
as a result of the recession. GENECON has reviewed the retail
market and economic case and assessed value for money from public
sector investment, including the application of the HCA's latest
cost-benefit methodologies.
