Old Press Mill Lane
View all projectsThis vision for Old Press Mill Lane is to create a re-energised gateway to the city of Cambridge. The development is a once-in-a lifetime opportunity to transform the area into a vibrant and distinctive city centre quarter, which links coherently to the rest of the city, while reflecting the historic character of the existing area. The site is next to a historic crossing over the River Cam and one of the only two places in Cambridge where the city meets the river. The original home of the University Press and once a working area dominated by trade, there is a rich layering of history and character which the masterplan aims to preserve and enhance.
