Modern new building set to start taking shape on old Swansea nightclub site

Once the home of Oceana, and a number of nightclubs before that, including Top Rank, Ritzy's, and Time and Envy, a new building will soon begin taking shape in The Kingsway.

Swansea Council has been working on a major new office space in the city centre which it hopes will provide space for 600 jobs in sectors such as tech, digital and the creative industries. Initial building work on site has focused on two basement floors at the 71/72 Kingsway scheme, with giant yellow cranes towering over the site.

But these have now been completed meaning work on the three above ground storeys at street level and above can begin, and passers-by will start to see the new structure take shape. Swansea Council has said the scheme will bring £32.6m a year to the city's economy and be carbon zero in its operation.
