Construction well advanced on Booking.com headquarters at Manchester Goods Yard

Neubau für die neue Hauptverwaltung von Booking.com in Manchester schreitet voran

Construction is well advanced at Allied London's Manchester Goods Yard development, where a new office building for anchor tenant Booking.com is now almost 50% complete, with other elements of the scheme nearing completion.

Manchester Goods Yard, as part of the St John’s Development in Manchester city centre, will provide a total of 31,000m2 of commercial space, including 28,000m2 of workspace and 3,000m2 of retail space across three interlinked building blocks.

The development will become a new global headquarters for Booking.com, who have taken 20,000m2. The building will create an enjoyable, state-of-the-art facility for up to 3,000 people, and will provide a benchmark for high-quality, flexible workspace in the city.

Manchester Goods Yard is set to become the fulcrum for Enterprise City at St. John’s, a new digital media technology hub which will be home for a mix of start-up and multi-corporation creative industries. The ultra-modern, flexible workspaces will be supplemented by a mix of café bars, restaurants and leisure facilities, with the aim of creating a vibrant neighbourhood in which to live, work, shop and relax.

Construction has recommenced following a successful safety pause to allow evaluation of risk assessments and method statements, ensuring appropriate measures were in place to comply with the guidelines issued by the Construction Leadership Council and Government.

The development, designed by Chapman Taylor, is under construction by Lend Lease on behalf of Allied London, and is currently on course for completion in February 2021.
