Originally built in 1865, the Bellevue Hotel is a heritage building that stands on an island site surrounded by land that has undergone continual changes of use. The hotel served as a licensed premises until 1995, and then became an unoccupied building.
Jackson Teece provided a commercially viable solution for this problematic site, adaptively re-using the heritage hotel building to accommodate its historic significance.
The development retains the old building with commercial space on the ground floor. A new, eight-storey building stands behind the old hotel, and comprises a total of 31 luxury apartments over a basement car park.
Jackson Teece’s Newcastle office will be located on the ground floor when the building is completed in early 2010. It will showcase the highest ‘green’ credentials.
