128 homes for This City, Manchester

This exciting design and build project in central Manchester involves 128 new homes across four buildings: two apartment blocks with 118 units and two terraces with 10 houses. Currently under construction, these homes are scheduled for completion in late 2025.

Following our work on Highfields, we are again collaborating with Wates on this high-profile project, the first development from This City, the council's own development company. With a strong focus on sustainability and community impact, this project is a key step forward for the city, for example in addition to delivering energy-efficient homes a third of the properties will be available at the Manchester Living Rent.

We have provided energy consultancy throughout, working closely with the Architects Buttress. Currently, we are providing extensive site support to ensure the team has the confidence to achieve the high quality expected of this standard.
