Hull City Centre Development Hailed By The Hull Civic Society.

A new hi-tech residential development has been hailed by the Hull Civic Society.
Ken Osborne and Julie Hare, developers behind the Sawmill Apartments, believe the city centre building represents the future of Hull. The Hull-born couple said they believe the city should be on a par with the likes of Leeds, Manchester and London.

Society president John Netherwood presented the couple with the prestigious Good Mark Award for the building, in Dock Street, city centre, which is the tallest timber-framed building in the north of England.

Ms Hare, who lives in Hessle, said after the award presentation: "We wanted to create a development in our own town that would help get rid of this unfair image of Hull as a second-rate city."

One of the most impressive features is the home automation system, which allows residents to text instructions to the computerised system so they can run a bath or switch the heating on before they even get home.

Ms Hare said: "We are also proud of the eco-friendly aspects. The apartments are well-insulated and energy-efficient."

Mr Osborne said he was delighted to receive the award for the 48-apartment building. He said: "We have lived and breathed this development and we are very proud of it.
"It means a lot to receive this recognition."

Mr Netherwood said such developments are important for the city.
He said: "With its quality materials, this has raised the bar in Hull and is an interesting addition to the streetscape. "We are also pleased the development has provided underground car parking."

The complex include one, two and three-bedroom apartments and prices range from £110,000 to £166,000. The couple are now creating three town houses and a restaurant on the George Street side in phase two of the development.
