Redvers House, High-rise office building in central Sheffield, England
Redvers House is a 14-story high-rise building with a light grey and aqua exterior located on Union Street in central Sheffield. The structure houses retail shops on its lower levels and residential apartments in the upper floors.
The building was constructed in 1971 by Newman Doncaster Associates and opened in 1972. It represented a new approach to office design in Sheffield during that period.
The building transformation from government offices to student accommodation reflects Sheffield's evolving urban development and demographic changes.
The building sits on a main thoroughfare in the city center and is straightforward to reach. Retail entrances are accessible from street level while residential areas occupy the upper floors.
The building underwent a major renovation in 2005 that replaced its original copper-tinted glass panels. This change eliminated the intense sun reflections that once affected the street during hot months.
