A new and exciting era is set to dawn on the Durham Road campus of Gateshead College.

As the college embarks on a major £38 million relocation to Baltic Business Park near Gateshead Quays, so local firm Grainger Developments has taken up the challenge to transform the 10-acre site into a mix of new family homes and apartments.

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to shape the future of the area and it is important to us that we get it right.

We are very keen to engage with local people so you can see the current proposals and have your say on the plans and make suggestions. We welcome this and it will enable us to make any alterations before the planning application is submitted.
