Greater Brighton has become a reality with the signing of the City Deal -- which promises to bring more than £170 million of investment into the area.

Politicians and dignitaries joined today (Tuesday March 11) to witness the ink drying on a document which pledges to create 8,500 jobs, build up to 200 homes and bring more than £360 million into the local economy.

It also outlines how it will turn the wider Brighton area into a hub for creative and green industries.

At the heart of the deal be a £24.5 million investment in Brighton's New England House, with £5 million coming from the government.

So the tower block made a fitting setting for government minister Greg Clark to join Brighton and Hove City Council leader Jason Kitcat and other dignitaries to mark its launch.
