Councillor Alex Houghton, Mayor of Southampton, said: "This marks a great milestone in the Centenary Quay project and I am delighted to have been involved in the topping out ceremony of Southampton’s tallest building. As well as providing new homes in Southampton, Centenary Quay offers residents and the surrounding community a wide range of benefits. I look forward to seeing the waterside scheme complete and welcoming new residents to this growing community."
Councillor Jeremy Moulton, Deputy Leader of Southampton City Council and Cabinet Member for Growth, commented: "Projects like Centenary Quay are an important factor in our delivery of new homes across the city that not only provide affordable housing but also provide better options for home ownership which make home buying more accessible. This is especially important as Southampton has been identified as one of 20 cities’ nationally to increase housing targets by 35% in support of the government’s target of delivering 300,000 homes in England per year."
