Brickworks Canalside, Digbeth Quarter Property Development

BIRMINGHAM, November 2024 – Sama Investment Group, the Birmingham-based developer and investor, has announced that construction of its multi-million-pound Canalside residential scheme in Birmingham’s Digbeth Quarter will commence in the first quarter of 2025 – with 85 apartments now for sale.

The project, known as the Brickworks Canalside – which is inspired by the area’s rich industrial history – will see a range of one-to-three-bedroom homes delivered as part of an eight-storey building along Watery Lane Middleway and Bolton Street, next to one of the West Midland’s most iconic waterways, the Grand Union canal.

New homes will be supported by a dynamic range of resident amenities including communal social space, office area and gym. The proposals also incorporate biodiverse roof top terraces, plants and foliage, and clean air features such as a “living wall” as part of the sustainably led plans.

With Brickworks Canalside located within proximity to the cultural and creative hub of Digbeth, Birmingham centre, and the city’s current and emerging transport hubs, residents will also benefit from 144 cycle storage spaces. The scheme is expected to be completed in 2026.

Bilal Ahmed, Founder and Executive Chairman of Sama, said: “This beautiful and modern development will enrich the lives of many Birmingham residents, and I’m delighted that we can rejuvenate this derelict brownfield site to deliver much-needed new housing to the city centre.

“There is great potential to breathe life into this historic section of the Grand Union Canal, while also supporting the wider regeneration of the area. We look forward to progressing Brickworks Canalside in early 2025 and continuing to support Birmingham’s growth as a major city.”
