It always felt good here: how Sheffield's brutalist Park Hill estate survived the haters and their bulldozers
Branded a no-go area in the 80s, this immense complex was almost flattened like several of its neighbours. But an often painful redevelopment is giving it a new lease of life.
"I love Park Hill because you always know when you’re home," says Joanne Marsden. "When I come back on the train, I look up and think: 'Wow, I'm here. I’ve made it.'" She's talking about the colossal housing estate that stands on the hillside above Sheffield like a great concrete castle, where she was born in 1965 in her nan’s back bedroom.
Park Hill flats, Sheffield’s concrete landmark and the most ambitious inner-city development of its time which opened in 1961 to replace slum terraces. It was a hugely popular place to live, with its 'streets in the sky' and innovative external decks for access. The design by architects Jack Lynn and Ivor Smith was influenced by Le Corbusier’s Unite d’habitation in Marseille. The brutalist structure was criticised in later decades and fell into disrepair until developers Urban Splash began renovating the Grade II* listed complex in 2009.

It always felt good here: how Sheffield's brutalist Park Hill estate survived the haters and their bulldozers
Branded a no-go area in the 80s, this immense complex was almost flattened like several of its neighbours. But an often painful redevelopment is giving it a new lease of life.
"I love Park Hill because you always know when you’re home," says Joanne Marsden. "When I come back on the train, I look up and think: 'Wow, I'm here. I’ve made it.'" She's talking about the colossal housing estate that stands on the hillside above Sheffield like a great concrete castle, where she was born in 1965 in her nan’s back bedroom.
Park Hill flats, Sheffield’s concrete landmark and the most ambitious inner-city development of its time which opened in 1961 to replace slum terraces. It was a hugely popular place to live, with its 'streets in the sky' and innovative external decks for access. The design by architects Jack Lynn and Ivor Smith was influenced by Le Corbusier’s Unite d’habitation in Marseille. The brutalist structure was criticised in later decades and fell into disrepair until developers Urban Splash began renovating the Grade II* listed complex in 2009.
