The Haven

The project comprises a sympathetic extension, reconfiguration, refurbishment and rehabilitation of the Haven building in John Mackintosh Square.

‍

This complex project will reinforce the existing structure to facilitate an additional two-level extension and incorporate a significantly sustainable and energy-efficient double-skin glazed façade for the new exterior. The extension will result in a building of ground plus seven stories. The proposed 'Haven' development is situated at the juncture between Zone 1 and Zone 2, and seamlessly connects Gibraltar's Old Town and the dynamic corridor and regeneration along Queensway, including Kings Bastion and Midtown.

‍

This embodies a harmonious blend of historical charm and modern vibrancy. Picking up the responsibility from the Siege Walls as Gibraltar's 'façade,' 'The Haven' commits to preserving this symbolic identity despite reclamation on the west side.

‍

With a rich history transitioning from the Treasury and Telecomms hub to Its currnet unoccupied state, the project vision seeks to rejuvenate The Haven, honouring its past significance.

‍

The external design emphasises a 'Double Aspect' facade, reflecting both historical and modern aspects. Guided by principles of historical respect, sustainability, and community enhancement, 'The Haven' aims to be an eco-friendly space fostering economic growth, community engagement, social interaction.
