bloc
Our partnerships with occupiers, property and infrastructure owners deliver impact developments that maximise economic and social value from surplus or underperforming real estate creating vibrant living spaces and working places. bloc re-purposes land and buildings into sustainable long-term assets.
Impact Developments provide measurable outputs to people and planet showing that profit and societal benefit is not mutually exclusive.
Over and above physical structures, our contribution to the communities we build in include the investment we deliver and the jobs that we create together with urban renewal alongside environmental improvement.
Our alliances with the public and charitable sector are built on trust and structured as social enterprises allowing financial reinvestment in the landowner organisation for philanthropic purposes.
Partnership provides the landowner with influence over use and form aligned with equitable profit distribution in addition to beneficial non-financial outputs. Our projects are delivered via single and multi-site contracts or corporate ventures.
