THESE stunning photos show the sunset from the terrace of a new major city centre development.
Photographers have captured the first sunset shots from the roof of the new Edward Street Quarter project in Brighton.
The snaps show the views from the residents’ roof terrace, which developers describe as “the showstopping feature of the new neighbourhood.”
The views stretch from The Royal Pavilion to Brighton Palace Pier, and on a clear day, it may be possible to see the Isle of Wight.
The terrace wraps around the south and western side of the former Amex house building in John Street.
Members of the Brighton Skies Facebook group were invited to take photos of the site by developers Socious, in collaboration with builders First Base, Patron Capital, Investec and McLaren Construction.
Photographer Anna Tinner added: “Seeing the Royal Pavilion from this angle and being able to capture it in all its splendour was the highlight for me. You never get to see it from this height.”
Brighton Skies member Michael Harris said: “I really like seeing things from a new vantage point.
"It’s a pretty fantastic view of the Pavilion and it was amazing to view the city from a fresh perspective. It’s always great seeing something a bit different.”
The roof terrace forms part of the £120 million mixed use development in the city centre.
Steve Eccles, Director at Socius, said: “We were so pleased to invite Brighton Skies members up to the roof terrace to capture these spectacular sunset shots.
“The residents’ roof terrace is a stunning feature at Edward Street Quarter, and it will also help neighbours to get to know one another, strengthening the new community we’re building.”
The new quarter will include 60 apartments, office space, green areas and public art installations.
Many of the two and three-bedroom apartments have outside space and access to the communal roof terrace.
Developers say there will also be space for leisure, retail and hospitality facilities.
Construction began in February 2020.
