2000 and Beyond

The key to Brunswick's plans was the introduction of specialist developers for specialist projects. Experts were brought in for each area of the Marina.

The residential development of 800 flats and houses was undertaken by Barratt one of the largest housebuilders in the UK.

The marina itself was leased to Premier Marinas operators of five of the largest marinas in the country, and the Commercial section of the marina was handed over to Parkridge Developments specialists in Retail and leisure projects.

Parkridge quickly proved their mettle with the design and construction of the 'Waterfront' a four storey complex incorporating Retail units and an Hotel and Restaurants with spectacular views over the Marina. The Waterfront opened for business in October 2002.
