Key Steps
Stories Collection
We will start to test ways to gather stories based on what you have told us during the public consultation.
Concept Design (RIBA 2)
Information from the first public consultation will help us come up with a picture of how the building – its stories, screens, learning spaces, social spaces, public spaces etc. – might fit together.
Second Outline Business Case Development
Here, we check with our funders and make sure that Belfast Stories is still a good investment.
Public Consultation - Concept Design
There will be a second public consultation to ask your opinions on the concept design and will take a look forward and we will begin gathering ideas to shape the next stage of the project.
Spacial Coordination & Technical Design (RIBA 3&4)
Information from the second public consultation will help shape the spacial coordination and technical design stages, which will give us the building layout and detailed designs for its construction.
Planning Permission
We will ask for formal approval to build Belfast Stories. The law states that we must also have a public consultation during this stage.
Full Business Case Development
This is when we seek to secure the remaining funding necessary to go ahead and build Belfast Stories.
