Spectacular building now open

The Riverside Building, the prestigious Scruton commercial development on the Waterside Business Park in Hessle, is now complete and ready for its first tenants. The attention-grabbing exterior, decorated with glazed blue and terracotta tiles and polished blocks, ensures that the building is already a landmark on the water front.

With glass walls giving dramatic views over to the south side of the River Humber and the Humber Bridge, the development provides spectacular office accommodation. It is attracting interest from a number of high-profile businesses, with the first tenants due to move in very shortly.

Ian Scruton, Managing Director of Scruton, comments:

“We have added to the already high level specification to ensure that our clients have access to the very best fixtures and fittings throughout the Riverside. These include enhanced acoustics, top of the range lighting and Villeroy & Boch sanitary ware.

“These features complement the great design and excellent workmanship that I know is present throughout the building. All add up to the most distinctive office space in the region.”

The Riverside Building offers some 18,000 sq ft of prime office space, in suites from 1,510 sq ft. The design makes use of comfort cooling and solar power, and is Disability Discrimination Act compliant, with lift access to all floors. Scruton are aware of the need to mitigate the potential environmental impact of the building and it has received a very good BREEAM rating.

The development is on a prestigious site at the gateway to Hull, in a commercially strategic location. With panoramic river views, the building is surrounded by landscaped grounds with 70 dedicated car parking spaces.

It also enjoys excellent transport links, to Hull, the rest of the UK and Europe – via road, rail, air and ferry. It is close to local amenities including shopping and a health/fitness centre.
