The Assembly Rooms Redevelopment, Derby
Located in the heart of Derby City Center and sitting at the foot of Derby’s Market Square, the Assembly Rooms site sits unused with a large potential to provide something new and innovative to Derby.
The development of the Assembly Rooms site aims to provide more for the city than just the addition of a new performance space. By accommodating the needs of users of all ages in the surrounding area through the inclusion of OPEN SOCIAL SPACES where people can use as they wish, a FLEXIBLE working environment that can be hired for use by surrounding businesses and education, and a LARGE AUDITORIUM to showcase performances and music events. The masterplan aims to REIGNITE the city centre in Derby and bring the bustling market life back into Market Square, while also being a CATALYST for the further masterplanning of Derby Riverside and other areas of development.
