QUAD Derby

"QUAD promises to be a huge pull for visitors and the visual reality is even more impressive than the computer-generated images we have seen previously."
Cllr Chris Williamson, Leader of Derby City Council - speaking in an interview with Derby Evening Telegraph on 26 February 2008.

"I compare the regeneration of the city centre to a successful jigsaw... the retail and leisure uses are now firmly in place and with QUAD set to open later this year, the cultural fit is also coming together."
Peter Gadsby - speaking in an interview with Derby Evening Telegraph on 26 February 2008.

"The QUAD visual arts and media centre in the Market Place... will give people more reason to spend their leisure time in the city centre, rather than going out of town, which will have a knock-on effect for shops and restaurants."
John Cadwallader, Chief Executive of Derby Cityscape speaking in an interview with Derby Evening Telegraph on 26 February 2008 

"...with QUAD opening its doors this autumn, I believe we are heading into a period when the city can really shine as a leading hub of creativity within the East Midlands." Stephen Munn, Director of Derby Dance speaking in an interview with Derby Evening Telegraph on 29 February 2008
