When it comes to finding a location right at the heart of the future of a sustainable city centre, this is The One.
CONNECTED
One Grosvenor Gate has a well connected neighbour. The Weaver’s Cross Belfast Transport Hub will include a number of significant improvements designed to enhance all transport options. This will include a fully integrated bus and rail concourse with the capacity to accommodate increased passenger growth and improve customer experience.
With two airports, connections to major road networks and of course our neighbours at Weaver’s Cross, for a gateway to a globally connected Belfast, this is the one.
FOR
SUSTAINABILITY
Sustainability is about being
environmentally responsible but also
about future proofing a building.
One Grosvenor Gate has an embedded passive energy
and sustainable ethos. In practice this means a clear
objective to achieve a BREEAM excellent rating.
With tall ceilings, a well insulated facade and exposed mass, mechanical air conditioning will be reduced to a minimum. Thermal mass will absorb heat generated from computers, lighting and people. A responsive facade will optimise the performance of the building’s envelope.
Connected floorplates bring natural daylight into the heart of the building. There will also be storage for 260 cycles and shower facilities to make it easier for people to achieve a fully green commute to work.
WHY BELFAST
Three airports within 90 minutes of the city centre with direct flight to over 180 destinations in 40 countries on four continents.
