Luton’s Hat Gardens named as ‘Project of the Year’ at national building awards
Luton’s £1.9 million project to transform derelict land on Bute Street into a community space has been named as the Project of the Year at a building awards ceremony.
The Hat Gardens was officially opened in May and since then has been the place for people to get together for events like the Coronation and Pride in Luton. Now, the hard work of Luton-based construction company and project contractor Ryebridge has been recognised at the National Building and Construction Awards, with the park taking home the 'Project of the Year’ (under £10m) award
