At 27-storeys tall, Hadrian’s Tower will be an exciting new addition to the Newcastle skyline. The apartment [block is set](https://www.financedigest.com/digitized-overhaul-to-drive-the-bone-block-fixation-sets-market.html "Digitized overhaul to drive the Bone Block Fixation Sets Market") to usher in a new style of chic, urban homes, with residents benefitting from a range of on-site amenities. These will include a 24/7 hotel-style concierge service, a café and touchdown meeting points. The crowning glory will be the stunning sky lounge, which will offer unsurpassed views across Newcastle. **_“Hadrian’s Tower is an incredibly exciting development to bring to Newcastle, as it will mark the start of a new phase for the city’s property market.

Using the tallest crane that the city has ever seen plays a big role in that, not just from the physical build perspective but also from the psychological point of marking the start of a new era.”_** **Jonathan Stephens, MD, [Surrenden Invest](http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0010rsYiKNpZG9nXvUlA4-v6rJ1-4YK-_iKDu5aXpcoiiHLTWfH0dyFKOgF5VuHvNSjfUkQVcl69mOKWDVLfBrC7mKsHG9ml4FVNtZ1YIYJEriszgQ5YJMuDd0qJtDhqTy6Eypu1L0JxILMVGBi1WhaGtfDxs1xFWnlYZHVSOyWrsRNEU0AK1I-pQ==&c=hxLUw_5zbvK_nv1VhZ3XWJ6mwDh5iC1nvM_XzCkJNdge5lIM6ULzkw==&ch=YwW7eLsTM2A5TVTIIutxpZxCdvZVFZGP5zYUznNiFNGuNRjT0hUgkw==)** ![High Street Residential ](https://prod.superblogcdn.com/site_cuid_cm5qst7v3003gwirgwqtxn8i8/images/high-street-residential-1736840274739-compressed.jpg) With an eight-tonne load capacity, the 110 metre loughing crane, which has a reach of 127 metres, will be used to lift everything from concrete slabs to plasterboard to cladding materials. **“This is a complex operation, due to the size of the crane.

It will then remain on site for a year and the development will be visible from most entry points into the city during that time.** **_“We believe this will be the tallest crane that has ever been used in Newcastle.
