A rejuvenated town centre site acting as a catalyst for change and growth.
The regeneration of Union Street in Aldershot will establish a distinctive, mixed-use town centre with high-quality offerings for retail, leisure, culture, employment and housing. The vision will unlock a currently inaccessible area to create a bustling and inspiring new quarter with key connections and a landscaped public realm.
The new public realm will create two interlinking yards that unite Union Street, High Street and Short Street. The yards will be pedestrianised and surrounded by a mix of uses including a café, retail space and maker units which aim to create a vibrant and active street scene for the local community.
The architecture respects Aldershot’s unique character with inspiration drawn from celebrated elements of the town’s heritage and history. Each detail is derived from its setting – from the varying plot widths, to the stepped roofscape and bespoke shopfronts, all of which combine to ensure the scheme is firmly rooted within Aldershot.
