  • Description: Provider: - Institution: - Data provided by Europeana Collections- 19th January 2006. Image shows the recently evacuated Caspar Apartments(City Centre Apartments for Single People at Affordable Rents) at number 55, North Street, constructed for the Joseph Rowntree Foundation. Unfortunately, the innovative design of the prefabricated apartments did not live up to expectations and an engineering report deemed that bad weather conditions could leave them vunerable. The ?68,500 apartments comprising of a kitchen, bathroom, double bedroom and living area, plus a small 2nd bedroom or home office were designed by Japanese construction company, Kajima and assembled in the factory before being placed on site by crane. The five storeys were self supporting and served by lifts. Each flat was a generous 51 square metres, and they were completed in 2000.
