Wrexham County Borough Council (WCBC) has appointed a Lead Designer to lead, design and manage the remodelling and refurbishment of the Old Library to work with the Local Authority and key stakeholders to produce and refurbish onsite the Old Library, Queens Square.
This proposal will see the building transformed to create a new focused creative hub, a symbolic and transformational lever to stimulate the regeneration of the new city centre. This will deliver a facility which will complement nearby leisure offer in the city centre and enhance Wrexham’s offer as a cultural / business / visitor destination. The proposal will safeguard a Carnegie heritage asset within Wrexham City Centre, which adds further value to the Creative Hub project.
The Contracted Work will cover RIBA stages 3 to 6 with concept design proposals already completed as part of the feasibility study completed earlier this year. The Council requires the refurbishment to move forward to RIBA Stage 6, along with meetings with key stakeholders. The refurbishment will include working with the in-house Officer Working Group (OWG), an external appointed project manager and an onsite design coordinator for the refurbishment.
