The document sets out the framework for the development of a new economic vision and economic delivery arrangements for Cardiff, identifying approximately 50Ha of developable land. The new draft masterplan outlines the expansion of the city centre south towards Cardiff Bay, the proposed facilities will include a new International Convention Centre, a new grade A office district, an indoor arena and integrated transport hub, infrastructure improvements and public spaces. The site is located within the ‘Station Gateway and Callaghan Square’ area of the draft masterplan, the key development anchor based around the redevelopment of the areas north and south of the central station. This area is proposed to form a distinct new civic space at the front of the station, establishing clear connections to the shopping core. The proposed focus will be upon active units at ground floor and a mix of hospitality, commercial and residential uses. A smaller square is proposed between Wood Street and Park Street which provides a viewing corridor towards the Millennium Stadium. Indicative scheme
