Construction has started on the Hive co-living development in Kelham Island, Sheffield, with an investment of £24 million. The project will add 100 housing units by spring 2027 and includes studio-style units with shared facilities for various activities, plus ground-floor retail space.

Developed by Grantside, with HBC Construction Limited as the main contractor and project management from EDGE, the building aims for a BREEAM 'Excellent' rating and WiredScore Platinum certification. Rooftop solar panels will power communal areas. This initiative is part of a broader effort to deliver 20,000 new homes in Sheffield city centre over the next decade.
