Final draft agreements for Maidenhead town centre’s regeneration have now been submitted – marking a major milestone in the long-awaited project. Developer Areli is preparing to start work on a project to redevelop the Nicholsons Centre and build 755 homes, 11,000sqm of commercial space (offices) and up to 850sqm for retail/other flexible use. The plans have been approved by a council panel already but have yet to be officially stamped ‘approved’, as they are pending the final legal agreements. Construction of the Nicholsons redevelopment is expected to proceed in stages, and initial phases will take until 2029 to complete. Meanwhile, town centre businesses are preparing to move away ahead of the closing of the Nicholsons Centre for good on June 9.
