Once the workshop of the world, Birmingham is experiencing

a 21st century renaissance to rival its past prowess as the city

of a thousand trades.

Locals argue it never really went away. Of the 4,000 inventions

made in the UK every year, 2,800 come from Birmingham.

Which tells you a lot about the city and its character.

And over 150 years ago, this very development, then known as the

Tyndall Works, was registering its own application to the Patent

Office, for its proprietary ornamental designs made from brass.

So you see, Birmingham has never lost its entrepreneurial spirit.

Instead, at the dawn of the roaring 20s, the world’s attention has

turned back towards it. Its potential, power and desirability for

all to see…

Welcome to The Copperworks, a development brimming with

history and character in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter.

The Copperworks occupies a prominent location in the south west of the city’s Jewellery Quarter, a new and thriving residential neighbourhood for Birmingham, only minutes walk from the city centre. Built within the strict conservational guidelines designed to preserve the heritage of the Jewellery Quarter, the development cleverly fuses its past industrial usage with a modern aesthetic to offer an array of homes full of character and charm. A community of 71 homes, The Copperworks comprises a range of residences; apartments,

duplexes and townhouses. Some are new-build, others form part of the restoration of the centrepiece, the Grade II listed former brass works, dating back to 1854. Traversing Sloane Street and Camden Street and only half a mile from the Jewellery Quarter Metro, The Copperworks is a major new address and an exciting opportunity to be a part of this area’s residential renaissance.

INNOVATIVELY INDUSTRIALBuilt to reflect the surrounding architecture of the Jewellery Quarter, The Copperworks features traditional red brickwork with hints of copper and zinc, a nod to the materials so ubiquitous to the forges and makers who gave the area its name. Deep reveal windows, dark contrasting surrounds, brick openings in the façade and open weave brickwork all combine to give an innovatively industrial appearance. Stylish residences both inside and out.

Birmingham has three main stations; New Street , Snow Hill and Moor Street , the former two being the closest to The Copperworks, around a 10 minute walk. The proposed HS2 would put Birmingham at the epicentre of the UK's new high-speed rail network slashing journey times to London down from 1 hr 21 mins to 45 mins. It would also revolutionise Birmingham’s connectivity with the regions, making Leeds accessible in 49 mins, what is presently a two hour trip. It seems unlikely the scheme will meet its 2026 opening time, at Birmingham’s Curzon Street . When it completes it will drastically change the face of rail travel in the UK.

Accounting giant PWC recently described Birmingham as set to become the most walkable city in the UK. It is an oft quoted fact that the city

W H A T H S 2 M E A N S F O R B I R M I N G H A M

The London Euston to Birmingham Curzon Street route is the jewel in the crown for the HS2 network. Scheduled by the UK Prime Minister to go ahead “immediately”, the project has its own government minister, dedicated solely to the delivery of HS2, a game-changing infrastructure project for the entire country, to the tune of over £100billion.

The Birmingham Interchange marks the point at which the line will fork to the North West and North East, connecting also to Birmingham Curzon Street and Birmingham Airport, already served by Emirates, Qatar Airways, Lufthansa, Air India and more. London will be a 45-minute journey from Curzon Street – nearly half the current time (82 mins), opening up the city exponentially to further investment and relocations for families, young professionals and businesses, particularly from London and the South East.

has more waterways than Venice (35 miles to Venice’s 26), which provide tranquil walks to work for many Brummies. It’s efficient Metro and bus systems make up excellent public transport links, the Jewellery Quarter metro a little over a five minute walk from The Copperworks.

BHX , Birmingham’s International Airport is ever-growing its flight path span, its expansion making it the fastest growing airport in the UK, with major airlines including British Airways, Emirates, Qatar Airways, PIA, Lufthansa and EasyJet.

Meanwhile, Colmore Row, the city’s central business district is just a 10 minute walk from The Copperworks.

When online fashion retailer ASOS launched its same day delivery service in Birmingham in 2018, its first ever outside of London, it cited the city’s tech talent as a major motivator. Silicon Canal is a non-profit organisation creating a major tech pool throughout Birmingham and the West Midlands. It broadcasts that tech talent costs 50% less than in London, whilst tech professionals are attracted to Birmingham for its greater affordability. Over 6,000 tech companies are registered, and along with the support of Innovation Birmingham, a dedicated campus for the digital and tech community, the industry is beginning to rival the proliferation of financial and professional service providers in the city.

Another contributing factor to Birmingham’s growing tech economy is its ‘sticky’ graduate community; the majority of Birmingham’s graduates choose to remain and work in the city, making it easy for firms to attract top talent. It's easy to see why Birmingham is the number one city for start-ups outside of London.

PWC’s move to One Chamberlain was its largest single office investment ever made outside of London and BT announced in early 2020 it was to move 4,000 workers to Snow Hill, quintupling the amount of staff it already had in Birmingham and making it the city’s biggest employer. In February 2019 HSBC made Birmingham the new headquarters for its ring-fenced bank at Centenary Square, a homecoming of sorts for what was once The Midland Bank. Outside of these major office moves, coworking space accounted for 22% of office take up in Birmingham 2017-19.

In the last decade alone 108,000 people have relocated to Birmingham. Now with the population predicted to grow to 1.3 million from 1.1 million by 2040, employment in Birmingham is expected to increase by 10% over the next decade. The ONS predicts 3,145 households will have to be created every year to accommodate this trend, with the present housing pipeline estimated to deliver 2,555.

60% of UK's automotive R&D is located in Birmingham & West Midlands.

Birmingham tops the list of locations for the relocation of parts of the Bank of England from London.

A growing trend in companies relocating parts of their operations from London

to Birmingham has made the city the top destination for relocation outside of

the UK capital.

Two major events are putting Birmingham under a global lens: Host city of the 2022 Commonwealth Games and its status as the UK's 5G test-bed.

2524

Birmingham: A 5G bellwether

Birmingham is the UK’s 5G test-bed for the next-gen network, 10 times faster than 4G and even outpacing home fibre broadband. It gives unlimited potential for daily lives, in particular our growing use of the Internet of Things. A testament to Birmingham’s forward-looking nature, it staved off national competition to be selected as the 5G test-bed and already the benefits for the city and residents are being felt. “ The potential of this technology is endless – and we will enjoy the benefits first. From monitoring the health of babies and the elderly, to the way our people are linked to the economy of the future, the way companies do business, the way we deliver public services, the experience of travellers on public transport and the way we deliver City of Culture and the Commonwealth Games – everything can be made better thanks to the power of this technology.”

Andy Street, West Midlands Mayor

“ The games will involve several major infrastructure developments, namely: the development of a 1,000 home Athletes’ Village in Perry Barr, a £70m expansion of the Alexander Stadium and the construction of a £60m aquatics centre in Sandwell. According to Birmingham City Council, the Games are expected to create on average 4,526 jobs a year until 2022, 950 after.”

Greater Birmingham Chambers of Commerce

A national stage: Birmingham 2022

The legacy of international sporting events is well documented for the economies of host cities. The 2018 Commonwealth Games held on Australia’s Gold Coast were estimated to have delivered a AUS$2.5billion rise to the economy of Queensland, whilst Glasgow which hosted the 2014 Games, had an economic impact of £740million and attracted 690,000 visitors. Stats from the Scottish Government confirm that Scottish businesses benefited from the Glasgow Games though £669million in new business contracts. Meaning the future certainly looks bright for Birmingham’s turn as host.

• 2.4billion citizens across the Commonwealth

• Up to 1 million visitors expected

• A global viewing audience of 1.5billion

• 11 days of sport

• 12,500 volunteers

• £526million benefit to West Midlands economy

Golden Square and St Paul’s Squares are popular gathering places, the former often streaming live sporting and cultural events, whilst St Paul’s Square is known for its garden and handsome Grade I listed Georgian architecture – the only Georgian square in the city.

Residents boast the JQ is only a 15 minute walk from everywhere you want to be in Birmingham, the Bullring & Grand Central, Arena Birmingham… and what’s more, the network of waterways that run through the JQ mean you can often walk to these places free from traffic.

Recent Masterchef 2019 winner Stu Deeley will be providing the quarter’s most anticipated culinary event of the year when he opens his restaurant in 2020, having honed his skills at the highly rated JQ eatery The Wilderness, a pop-up turned permanent. The neighbourhood is home to over 30 independent restaurants and a host of artisanal coffee shops, grocers and bakers. It has two independent theatres and dance venue The Jam House, whilst its bars and pubs are legendary with names like The Actress & Bishop.

35

The Jewellery Quarter, or JQ as it is

colloquially known, has established

a reputation as the place for

independents, infused with its

own signature style and character.

Incredibly, it still accounts for 40%

of all the jewellery made in the UK,

this sense of industry still palpable

as you walk its streets.

The Schools of King Edward VI in Birmingham is a charity foundation involved in education at 10 schools across the city; two independent schools, six free grammar schools and two multi-ability schools via the management of historic land assets passed by royal decree in 1552. It aims to represent the multi-cultural and diverse population of the city to ensure children from all backgrounds can access and take advantage of Birmingham’s strong educational history.

E D U C A T I O N

Empowering through educationEducation is held in high esteem in Birmingham, the city’s Central Library being the largest public library in Europe. As well as five top UK universities, Birmingham has an excellent schooling system, known for its outstanding state comprehensives and grammar schools. And like the trend in many other UK towns and cities, having good sought-after schools drives local housing demand as families relocate to ensure they are in the required catchment area.

Within the Jewellery Quarter, the School of Jewellery, now forms part of Birmingham City University’s faculty, the Birmingham Institute of Art & Design, one of the largest dedicated faculties in the UK, showcasing the JQ as a real centre of excellence, past and present.

Birmingham is famed for its shopping; malls anchored by big names like Selfridges and Harvey Nichols fused with a booming independent fashion culture. Its main shopping centres are the Bullring & Grand Central and The Mailbox, whilst smaller independent shopping-destinations include the Grade II listed Victorian Great Western Arcade and the Custard Factory. In November, people from all over the UK flock to the city’s Frankfurt Christmas Market , the most authentic German Christmas market outside mainland Europe.

There are hundreds of boutiques catering to all styles and budgets, with local favourites such as the Liquor Store , a clothes shop-cum Speakeasy and People, a carefully curated lifestyle store. Swordfish Records on Dalton Street enjoys a celebrity music following and Disorder Boutique saw itself hailed by Queen of Shops Mary Portas as one of the cleverest retailers she’d seen in years.

Gosia Weber Handmade is well worth a visit in the JQ, curator of leather goods made with cast offs and scraps, Peter Forson hats is run by local fashion graduate Daisy Nyamie, and lit up in popularity with devotees of the TV series Peaky Blinders seeking out the flat caps as worn on screen. Vincent Vandoodle, an art and homeware pop-up has made a permanent home – and following – for itself in the Bullring and the Designer Dress Agency in Moseley is successfully tapping into the pre-loved market with devotees from across the country travelling to nab a cut-price designer gown.

Wine merchant Loki has won 11 national awards in the last three years whilst Miss Macaroon, owned by celebrated patisserie chef, Rose Ginday can be found in the Great Western Arcade. Maison Mayci is also a must for those with a sweet tooth, with shops in Moseley and King’s Heath.

World-famouscultural standingBirmingham is a city that celebrates its culture and heritage, described as one of the world’s greatest examples of urban creativity. Its great cultural legacy across the literary, musical, theatrical and artistic worlds comes from its own 17th century renaissance, The Midlands Enlightenment where it became a haven for free thinkers. Many writers haven written of its unique sense of self and its ability to forge a thriving cultural scene outside and independent of London.

That said, West End touring shows remain incredibly popular at the city’s Hippodrome Theatre, the UK’s busiest multi-stage theatre entertaining half a million guests every year

with a 400 performance programme. The Royal Ballet and modern dance repertory DanceXchange are also based there and it regularly hosts visiting national operas.

Birmingham is famous for its arenas, sell out musical and conference venues; the O2 Academy, Arena Birmingham and the International Convention Centre of which Symphony Hall’s nationally famous concert hall, forms part of. Concerts are also regularly performed in across the city’s churches, St Paul’s in the Jewellery Quarter, in particular.

Galleries are abundant and Birmingham has one of the largest collections of Pre-Raphaelite art, visible

at the Birmingham Museum. Modern works can be viewed at Ikon Gallery and popular exhibitions are always to be seen at Halycon. The Barber Institute of Fine Arts is only one of five institutions outside of London to be commended for its breadth of works of national significance.

And from fine art to football, the city’s Premier League side Aston Villa is famously supported by HRH Prince William, who regularly attends home games with his family.
