It is one bright sport of activity on Fargate which has sprouted more ‘To Let’ boards in recent weeks. But as one onlooker said: “We haven’t had Halloween yet.” Fargate is being transformed in a £33m project to breathe new life into the key city centre street.
New landscaping, green planting, seating areas, and lighting will be installed and a six-storey community hub will showcase Sheffield’s diverse talent, bringing together entertainment, culture, art, performance, co-working, exhibitions, workshops, talks, and events. It will include a licensed, 200-capacity live music venue in the basement, exhibition space, a café/juice bar, and two floors for co-working. With a year-round programme of events, it’s expected to attract more than 110,000 visitors a year.
