New Building

Building The Future Together

Good progress is now being made towards the creation of a purpose built home for NBT on Quarry Hill in Leeds. We are working with our development partners Rushbond PLC and a new building has been designed by DLA Architects which meets our needs and aspirations. We are now going through a process of finalising detailed designs and legal contracts. Planning application is due to be submitted in the late spring and we anticipate starting on site towards the end of 2007. Fundraising is progressing positively although we still need to raise £500K to complete the building.

Concept
To create an International centre for dance excellence in Yorkshire
To house Northern Ballet Theatre and Phoenix Dance plus associated training establishment

Partners
Arts Council of England (Funder)
Leeds City Council (Land)
Rushbond PLC (Developer)
Yorkshire Forward (Funder)
