Construction of a new HQ for BBC Wales is underway.
The 150,000 sq ft HQ building is located at the heart of the Central Square regeneration scheme in Cardiff. Work began just before Christmas.
Nine months later the floors are appearing. The building is scheduled for completion by 2018; the technical fit out required will see BBC Wales' move in during 2019.

Rhodri Talfan Davies, Director of BBC Wales said of the build earlier this year, “This £1bn economic boost underlines the difference BBC Wales can make. We’re leaving a large, inefficient site in Llandaff and moving to a smaller, more cost-effective space in Central Square because we need to work smarter and leaner. But the £1.1 billion benefit triggered by the move is a big boost for the economy and for the people who live here.”
