BIRMINGHAM’S TALLEST SKYSCRAPER
Discover a luxurious new home where city life revolves around you.
Standing in the city’s beating heart, The Bank presents a range of luxurious one, two and three bedroom apartments in Birmingham’s tallest residential building. At over 100 metres in height, this 33 storey skyscraper offers unrivalled views across one of Europe’s most vibrant cities and its distinctive network of working canals. With the Metro tramline right on the doorstep, an on-site gym, shared open space and ready access to everything offered by this exuberant and multicultural metropolis, life at The Bank couldn’t be more desirable.
Europe’s youngest city is a renowned seat of learning, drawing thousands of international students to its five outstanding universities. A further 15 universities (offering the widest range of courses) are all within an hour’s drive. Attracting more people moving from London than any other city, Birmingham is also at the centre of one of the largest Business, Professional & Financial Services clusters in Europe. Home to HSBC’s new UK banking HQ, Birmingham also boasts large regional offices for high profile names such as Deutsche Bank, Wesleyan, Lloyds, Gowlings and PwC.

Served by a major airport connecting the city with destinations across the globe, Birmingham has been named as the sixth best European city for investment. With four Michelin- starred restaurants, the Bullring, Grand Central and Mailbox shopping destinations, an exciting range of independent bars, restaurants and coffee houses and as the only city outside London with a Harvey Nicols, Louis Vuitton, John Lewis, Selfridges and House of Fraser stores, it’s not too difficult to understand why!
A new high speed rail line (HS2), with its dedicated station at Curzon Street, is due to open in 2026. Not only will HS2 reduce travel time between Birmingham and London to just 45 minutes, it will also bring 26,000 additional jobs and unlock economic growth. The city’s selection as the host of the 2022 Commonwealth Games has raised Birmingham’s international reputation even higher and will attract competitors and visitors from around the world.
Benefitting from one of the city’s most prestigious addresses, homeowners at The Bank will be at the very centre of social, cultural, recreational, leisure and sporting activity in this lively city.
The Bank is due for practical completion in winter 2019.
