Six North East property projects have been singled out as being the best in the region in a celebration of the area’s architectural sector.
The restoration of Newcastle Cathedral and Sunderland’s new City Hall are among the projects to have been shortlisted for the 2023 RIBA (Royal Institute of British Architects) North East Awards. The annual awards celebrate schemes for their regional importance as a piece of architecture, and will see the regional winner go up against others from around the UK.
The six shortlisted projects are 17nineteen in Sunderland, Gilesgate in Durham, City Hall in Sunderland, Godwit House in Northumberland, Newcastle Cathedral and St Hilda’s Church and Kirkleham Parish Centre in Redcar. The 17nineteen building in Sunderland, by Mosedale Gillat Architects, has already scooped a highly commended award at the Constructing Excellence North East awards..
