In 2005 Eric Kuhne and Associates also known as Civic Arts were appointed by Titanic Quarter Ltd to act as lead concept architects and Master Planners for Titanic Quarter.   Civic Arts commenced work on evolving the Development Framework, originally created by Turley Associates, into a Master Plan for Titanic Quarter.  The Master Plan will create a blueprint for the development of Titanic Quarter into a world-class waterfront location. 

The Master Plan divides Titanic Quarter into 5 Phases:-

Phase 1

1 million sqft mixed-use development adjacent to the Odyssey Arena and Pavilion.  Phase 1 encompasses the ‘the Arc' residential complex, designed by award winning architects Robinson McIlwaine, Gateway Offices by award winning Todd Architects, hotel, retail and leisure opportunities.

This phase also includes a new third level education campus for Belfast Metropolitan College, designed by Todd Architects.

Phase 2

3.3 million sqft high mixed-use development offering residential, commercial, retail and leisure facilities.  At the heart of this Phase will be the Titanic Signature Project, the former Harland & Wolff headquarters building and the RMS Titanic and RMS Olympic slipways which will form a world-class visitor destination.

Phases 3 - 5

These phases are at conceptual design stage.
