Tyne and Wear Development Corporation : ウィキペディア英語版 | Tyne and Wear Development Corporation
The Tyne and Wear Development Corporation (TWDC) was established in 1987 to develop land on the banks of the River Tyne and the River Wear in England. Its flagship developments included the regeneration of the East Quayside in Newcastle, Royal Quays in North Tyneside and St Peter's in Sunderland. During its lifetime of non-housing development and 4,550 housing units were built. Around 33,707 new jobs were created and some £1,115m of private finance was leveraged in. Circa of derelict land was reclaimed and of new road and footpaths put in place.〔''National Audit Office report dated 27 February 2002''.〕 The Chairman was Sir Paul Nicholson and the Chief Executive was Alastair Balls. It was dissolved in 1998. The legacy of TWDC remains controversial within the region in particular in Sunderland where it is believed the investment in services and leisure opportunities in Newcastle where the corporation was based was not matched in the rest of the region. The Corporation also invested heavily in developing the Tyne and Wear Metro system although this did not get extended to Sunderland until after the Corporation was shut down. ==References== 〔
