“Ambitious project” will connect Creaseys and old HSBC bank site

The store currently occupies 15 – 19 High Street and the redevelopment will see the retailer connect with the old HSBC premises at 13 High Street.

“Rihoy & Son has been on site since 3 July but had to wait until after Guernsey finished hosting the Island Games to begin erecting scaffolding along the town’s seafront,” said the retailer.

“The scaffolding will completely envelop 13 High Street, the Quayside façade and part of the roof of 15 – 21 High Street, so that demolition and rebuild of 13 High Street can begin.”

The project is expected to take three years to be fully completed.

“We are looking forward to realising Creasey’s vision and delivering the most significant construction project the Guernsey High Street has seen in recent times,” said Dan Taylor, Managing Director of Rihoy & Son.

“Our project team has worked together with Creaseys’ client team to phase the works around the technical and logistical constraints of the site and minimise disruption to customers and Town users in general.”
