TRANSFORMATIVE CITY MAKING

Smithfield is a once in a generation opportunity to reshape Birmingham’s city
centre. Located in the heart of the city, it will provide a new home for the
city’s historic Bull Ring markets, outstanding new leisure and cultural spaces,
including a festival square and landscaped park, integrated public transport,
and thousands of new homes alongside community facilities.


The site will be an international destination, created and shaped by local
people – building upon a rich diversity in the city and providing a place for
Birmingham’s communities to come together and share experiences and new ideas.
 

Following a major programme of consultation with Birmingham’s communities, a
planning application was recently submitted to Birmingham City Council.  If
approved, infrastructure works could begin in 2023.  You can view the planning
application here, using the reference number 2022/09643/PA.

 
A NEW SUSTAINABLE CITY QUARTER

 


WHAT IS SMITHFIELD?

Smithfield is an area in Birmingham city centre which includes the former
wholesale markets, plus the current Indoor, Open and Rag markets as well as some
surrounding land and buildings. It is key to unlocking the potential and growth
of the city and for the long-term economic and social prosperity for the region.


The £1.9bn Smithfield regeneration will be central to the wider, long-term
transformation of Birmingham.


The rich trading history and the legacy of the iconic Indoor, Open and Rag
markets are central to our plans to create a new vibrant market which can thrive
for years to come – celebrating the history of Birmingham and its roots as the
‘city of a thousand trades’. Smithfield has long been home to innovation and a
central part of city commerce. We will build on this history and support the
area to keep its role at the heart of Birmingham’s economy.


The new market at Smithfield will celebrate Birmingham and be an iconic new
centrepiece for the city centre. We want to create an international destination
that is a creative and cultural hub, serving local needs and drawing people
together.


Working with Birmingham City Council, Lendlease will deliver the project in
collaboration with the city’s communities.
