Totty Construction, the northern-based main contractor, has been awarded the final phase of the high profile Brewery Wharf residential development, by Barratt Leeds.
A single-storey extension will be built at the front of the Victory Club, which will feature a glazed roof structure to increase the volume of natural light entering the building.
The new extension will house the main reception area, box office and several multi purpose rooms.
ISG Totty Building will carry out minor refurbishment in the main 350-seat concert hall, whilst rationalising space throughout the remaining building to form a range of modern facilities.
Once completed, the refurbished centre will boast a music room with recording studio, a new lounge area, family room, a new bar/cafe area with high specification catering kitchen, refurbished welfare facilities and a second smaller concert hall, along with a 200-seat function room.
ISG Totty Building will replace the existing roof structure with a modern pressed metal pitched roof design, and all windows will be replaced and new mechanical and electrical services installed throughout.
Externally, the contractor will demolish an existing beer cellar to the side elevation and form an access route to the rear of the building, where a new floodlit, 37 space car par will be formed.
The project is due to commence mid-March and is scheduled for completion in October 2007.
Philip Ryder, managing director of ISG Totty Building, commented: "STEP Development Trust has worked incredibly hard to get this important community project from the drawing board and onto site, and we are delighted that ISG Totty Building has been selected as the main contractor".
"We are confident that once completed, the new centre will provide a highly flexible resource for Stocksbridge residents and provide a focal point for local ongoing regeneration initiatives.".
