There are two final remaining spaces for businesses looking to base themselves at Park Hill in Sheffield.
Once a bold experiment in social housing, this iconic Grade II* listed Sheffield landmark has been reimagined as a vibrant cultural quarter filled with creative minds and growing businesses – from urban designers Nineteen47 and property investors Revere to model agency Zebedee and Inform Surveying – each one proof that Park Hill’s appeal stretches across sectors.
On the ground floor of this concrete icon, life hums with activity – whether it’s families dropping off at the Grace Owen Nursery or locals settling in for small plates and drinks at Pearl at Park Hill. Pearl, from the team behind Sheffield’s much-loved Bench, brings a fresh take on the neighbourhood pub with seasonal cocktails, an ever-changing food menu and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Across the street is Park Hill Provisions, a one-stop shop run by local entrepreneur Zak Malook that blends community convenience with independent spirit.
Park Hill is well loved by the businesses based there – businesses like Field, whose operations director Katie Daniel notes how it “has been meticulously preserved”, adding: “We appreciate the care that has been taken to honour its heritage. Sheffield is our home and the restoration of the building deeply mattered to us, upholding the essence of what it once was whilst making it fit for a prosperous future.” Dan Brookman of Airship echoes Katie’s sentiments, adding that Park Hill is “a great space” which “adds up to a great environment for creativity and growth”.
Urban Splash – the award-winning regeneration company behind the transformation in partnership with Places for People – has just two spaces remaining in the current phases. Unit 10 (1,526 sq ft) and Unit 14 (1,636 sq ft) are ideal for businesses seeking a base in one of the North’s most distinctive urban settings, as Sian Stanhope, development manager at Urban Splash, explains: “Park Hill is so much more than a workspace; it’s a cultural hub.
“You’ve got hundreds of people living here, a growing community of workers and a real energy behind what’s happening – from inspiring local businesses to exciting food and retail operators who are shaping a new kind of high street.”
Architecturally, Park Hill remains true to its Brutalist roots. Its famed concrete structure and bursts of colour – originally used to differentiate flats in the ‘streets in the sky’ – continue to turn heads. But behind the striking aesthetic lies a practical appeal for occupiers: high ceilings and expansive views across both Park Hill’s communal courtyards and the Sheffield skyline.
Sian continues: “Park Hill presents a wonderful opportunity for businesses looking for a dynamic and immersive setting to thrive. With two units left, we’re nearing full capacity – testament to the demand for inspiring and well-connected spaces designed for growth and innovation.
“Ultimately, Park Hill is a setting that’s full of character and possibility. And these great spaces are available for businesses right now.”
