The TITAN Property Awards program recognizes, celebrates, and honors the highest levels of achievement in property development, interior design, architecture, landscape design, real estate, and marketing, focusing on ergonomics, innovativeness, living standards, originality, and sustainability. In the awards, each professional from the real estate industry possesses a stage that continues to shine a spotlight onto their work for both country and environment.

For the 2023 awards, Richard Carr successfully won the TITAN Gold award of the competition. Fortitudo Limited created this pivotal piece which brought him this creditable triumph.

“Corsica is truly a masterpiece, with historical recognition to the Martello Towers, it has its own story and characteristics! Which is why I am honoured that it has been recognised for its innovative interior and exterior designs. A huge thank you to the judges for allowing us to achieve the TITAN Gold Award.” Richard Carr, CEO

“It is with great pleasure that we honor the exceptional winners of the TITAN Property Awards, whose innovative and dynamic contributions have set a new benchmark for excellence in the industry.” claimed Thomas Brandt, the spokesperson for IAA. “These visionary winners inspire and empower all of us to ascend the property industry with dedication to excellence, representing TITANs that the jurors sought after.”

This week has seen the resubmission of the planning application for the redevelopment of the FJB Hotels in Sandbanks and Canford Cliffs. Following the special committee meeting on the 13^th of July 2022, Fortitudo have addressed the concerns over wave-over topping and the perceived flood risk at the Haven Hotel site and have provided updated reports and information within the new application.

With the newly gathered data, Fortitudo hope that the issues raised by the planning committee last year will be satisfied and the development can be approved.

Richard Carr, CEO of Fortitudo, has worked very closely on the proposed development and has said, ‘The granting of this application will bring about the regeneration of the coastline and the tourism offering in Poole with 2 new, high specification hotels with world class amenities as well as a state-of-the-art residential development on the Haven Hotel site. All three proposed buildings will comply with Fortitudo’s new ‘Carbon Negative’ initiative in their demolition, construction and operation, replacing older, less energy efficient buildings. The development will be a great benefit also to the local population as many of the amenities will be open to them including much-needed, new restaurants and spa facilities.’

CEO, Richard Carr, has set a goal for the team at Fortitudo to move the Company away from the mindset of Carbon Neutral and move developments to a Carbon Negative footing.

‘We in the development Industry are consistently being reminded of embedded carbon in buildings that we wish to demolish, so we have started this new journey. This is the latest part of our Carbon journey after stopping installing gas boilers in 2017.’

During the demolition phase of Fortitudo’s latest development, Merchants Quarter, large efforts have been made to reduce the scheme’s carbon footprint, focussing on embedded carbon.

Embedded carbon is the carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions associated with materials and construction processes throughout the whole lifecycle of a building or infrastructure. With this in mind, a careful and considered demolition process has allowed for the reclamation and reuse of a number of materials that formerly made up the Trethowans office on Longfleet Road in the Centre of Poole. At present, over 300,000 bricks have been cleaned of lyme mortar and are available for reuse, fireplaces throughout the building have been reclaimed and roof slates have been hand removed and are ready to be used on other projects.

Fortitudo have always had a focus on the operational carbon of their homes, the carbon that comes from energy, heat, lighting, etc, with the installation of air source heat pumps, EV charging points, solar panels and sustainable urban drainage systems across their developments, but a more considered approach to demolition is a huge stride towards a carbon negative development.

Today at the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole planning committee meeting, Fortitudo secured a resounding outline approval for the development on Glen Fern Road.
The scheme was valiantly supported by the Bournemouth BID, Ward Councillor Mike Greene and Fortitudo CEO Richard Carr, overturning the planning officer’s recommendation for refusal and paving the way for an 8 votes to 5 success, in favour of granting the development permission.
The approved scheme will bring forward 494 new homes to the centre of Bournemouth as well as a wide range of leisure facilities and a new 104 bedroom hotel. Richard Carr, CEO of Fortitudo said, “This is a pivotal moment in our journey to regenerate Bournemouth town centre. The next milestone for Fortitudo and our joint venture partner, Interceptor Opportunities Limited, is to get this delivered.”
During the debate amongst councillors, the scheme was called ‘a lifeline’ as well as being likened to the ‘Sydney Opera House’, with many labelling the scheme ‘iconic’ and highlighting its ability to become a focal point of the town.

Fortitudo CEO, Richard Carr said,’ I am truly delighted to have achieved this accolade and it makes all the hard work by the team at Fortitudo worthwhile’.

Fortitudo has seen the commencement of works at their most recent commercial development, Churchill Business Park this week with groundworks company Gracelands on site.

The site was acquired in February 2022 and suffered a setback when the original contractor, Woodmace, entered administration.

The news of activity on site is welcome and shows that despite perceived market conditions, the introduction of 48 brand-new, light industrial units has proven very popular amongst purchasers, with Fortitudo seeing more than 30% of Phase 1 already reserved or exchanged. Located on Magna Road, the site gives easy access to the area’s main arterial roads and is due to be built by Autumn 2024.
