en.Wedoany.com Reported - To meet the demand for high-quality affordable housing among city residents, Hull City Council has initiated a major regeneration project. Three outdated tower blocks—Torpoint, Millport, and Woolwich—are being demolished to make way for modern, energy-efficient homes.

Following a tendering process, GBM Demolition has been appointed to carry out the demolition work, which is expected to be completed by autumn this year.

Councillor Paul Drake-Davis, Hull City Council's portfolio holder for economic regeneration, housing, and organisational development, stated that this long-awaited development will truly drive municipal construction and build more homes for those on the housing waiting list. He noted that the council conducted extensive consultations with residents throughout the process, who clearly indicated that the outdated tower blocks should be replaced with modern mixed-use homes and apartments.

Under the plans, the number of new, energy-efficient, and sustainable council homes built will at least match the number of demolished properties. While retaining most of the existing green space, the site also offers development opportunities for non-residential buildings such as shops and community facilities. Hull City Council will subsequently recruit a development partner for the site.
