Blackpool’s Southpoint

A flagship project in Blackpool, Southpoint is one of the most striking projects LDG Contracts have completed in recent years.  Formerly known as “My Place”, the Southpoint project was designed to create opportunities for young people in an area of Blackpool which otherwise offers little opportunity.  Southpoint offers leisure and educational activities to youths aged 13 - 19, helping to revive the community in this area. The building uses a very contemporary design to open the facility up and provides light and space through large glazed areas, LDG Contracts installed their Technical FXI aluminium windows, using Guardian ClimaGuard A+ and LamiGlass, as well as MX visible grid framing for the curtain walled pod.  This is a truly iconic building for LDG Contracts and one they are proud to have contributed too.
