Bewick Court
Bewick Court is a 19 storey tower block with 133 residential apartments built in 1970 and designed by Taylor Woodrow. The building sits on top of a platform over John Dobson Street in Newcastle. It was built as part of the redevelopment of the city in the 1970s to the 'city in the sky' vision. The tower has been refurbished and re-clad. It is managed by the North British Housing Association.
