Howard Civil Engineering delivered the groundworks and elevated concrete slab for a new 97 luxury aparthotels in York. The apartments provide visitors with the experience of comfort of a boutique hotel with the convenience of a serviced apartment. The development is located on a unique waterfront location on the famous River Ouse in York.
The building is situated within the river's flood plain. To remedy this, the timber frame 4-storey building is set upon a concrete slab elevated above ground level on short columns founded on pile caps, with the space beneath serving as a floodable undercroft car park.
A flood wall at the rear the car park offers improve flooding protection to the properties behind.
