Makeover proposed for The Hub in Milton Keynes

    Today (1/12), The Hub has shared its plans for a Mortimer Square makeover in a bit do create a brand new focal point for Central MK.

    Built over 15 years ago, The Hub has seen many restaurants and bars come and go in its time. Now, a new proposal from DLA Architects Practice sets out a plan to give Mortimer Square, The Hub, a brand new look.

    Plans include consistency in restaurant terrace outdoor space to create a more coordinated environment, more seating opportunities.

    There are also plans for a new fountain and central space design to create a more attractive feature used all year as well as the introduction of more vegetation and landscaping to soften the space.

    A spokesperson on the presentation says: "If you have any comments you wish to make on the proposals, please email us at thehub@davidlock.com  We would be grateful if any views you have are submitted by 23 December 2021.

    "Following consideration of feedback and any changes to the design, planning approval will be sought from Milton Keynes Council.  If agreed, construction would be phased but could begin early in 2022 starting with the outdoor eating areas.  It is hoped that those units facing the square could be complete by the spring.

    "The final design and detail of the central fountain and landscaping is likely to follow but it is hoped all works will complete by the end of 2022."

    The plans state that the landowner is funding the changes and there is no cost to the residents and commercial properties to fund these changes.
