Key to delivering our vision will be the construction of a state-of-the-art landmark centre for the Medway Maritime Community. This workstream will be tasked with taking the planned centre from paper to a finished building.
Designed with the maximum community access in mind, it would need to meet the latest accessibility requirements, possess classrooms, office, changing rooms and catering facilities, plus a separate workshop area for the care and maintenance of boats and other site amenities.
Any design will need to be in keeping with the Riverside residential area to the north and east; as well as the covered yards and precincts of the Historic Dockyards to the south.
We believe that the logical area for a new building would be at the head of the Mast Slip with a workshop area alongside the southern arm, acting as a noise barrier between the residential area and Turks Yard, located in No 7 Slip.
