THE man behind four developments to revive the fortunes of the Tees Valley last night said the projects would not be detrimental to each other.
North Shore, in Stockton, was unveiled last week as the fourth site to be developed by Tees Valley Regeneration (TVR).
The others are at Central Park, Darlington, Middlehaven, Middlesbrough, and the harbour, at Hartlepool.
Each project will require investment of hundreds of millions of pounds. They will be mixed use, but all will focus on providing offices and housing.
Joe Docherty, TVR chief executive, said: "We are bringing slightly different products to the market in each case.
"We have carried out work to ensure we are not creating over-supply, but in terms of where these schemes are, so they do not impact on one another."
Last week, TVR announced plans to develop 56 acres of industrial wasteland on the north bank of the River Tees, close to Stockton town centre, creating 2,500 jobs.
But the project will only make it off the drawing board if TVR can attract a developer big enough to take on the whole scheme.
About 50 companies attended a presentation about the site's potential.
