Doubling in size
"Technology and media is a rapidly growing sector in Manchester, which is now considered the second largest creative and digital hub in Europe. MediaCityUK has been a key trigger in the explosion of creative start-ups and national relocations”.
Against this background, the £1 billion, 211,000m², second phase of MediaCityUK gained planning consent in September 2016 and triggered the start of the next step on the journey of establishing MediaCityUK into a sustainable mixed-use community.
Doubling in ambition
Already home to the BBC, ITV, University of Salford and over 250 creative media businesses, MediaCityUK is a major digital media hub, centre of learning and established visitor destination.
Major residential component
The Phase 2 scheme includes a major residential component, comprising 1,800 private sale and build-to-rent city apartments and town houses.
A mix of new office, retail and leisure uses
It will also deliver over 55,000m² of additional office space, retail and leisure uses, as well as a sequence of new public spaces.
Chapman Taylor’s role on Phase 2 includes the development of the overall masterplan and individual plot briefs, coordinating the work of six other architects on ten plots and also designing three of the buildings, including; a 470 unit build-to-rent apartment building with ground floor restaurants surrounding a landscaped court, an 11,000m² BCO ‘Grade A’ office building, and a 1,050 space multi-storey car park, with office, live/work space, energy centre and an LED ‘media wall’.
