Joint venture partners, British residential property developer Galliard Homes and peer Apsley House Capital, plan to redevelop the Soho Loop site near the Jewellery Quarter with 165 million pounds ($213.9 million) investment.

Galliard Homes and Apsley House intend to construct over 750 new houses and apartments as part of a canalside regeneration in Birmingham.

The scheme, to be called Soho Wharf, will be situated on an 11.7-acre site off Dudley Road near City Hospital and will adjoin the Main Line Canal.

The companies plan to construct 106 two- and three-bedroom townhouses and 650 one- and two-bedroom apartments in a bid to attract both families and young professionals, alongside over 10,000 square feet of commercial accommodation, new public space and gardens.
