Riverside Sunderland wins another Pineapple

Following its success in 2022 within the ‘Best Future Place’ category, Riverside Sunderland has picked up another Pineapple–this time crowned the ‘Place in Progress’ winner for 2025.

Curated by The Developer in partnership with Design Council, The Pineapples celebrate great places. Places that thrive; where people want to live, work, play, shop or learn.

“The approach is creative and multifaceted, from the construction training hub to its smart city status and its investment in new industries including the British e-sports arena. The team should be proud of what it has achieved to date and the bright future to come.”

Riverside Sunderland is an ambitious masterplan for regeneration that we designed in collaboration with Proctor & Matthews Architects and MawsonKerr Architects for Sunderland City Council and development partner igloo Regeneration. It is intended to invigorate the existing city centre, creating a vibrant urban quarter which will attract new businesses and homemakers; creating a new, environmentally conscious, forward-thinking, zero carbon community.
