£450m plan to create 1,900 jobs

Land in Upper Brook Street, Ardwick, has been earmarked for the proposed development which would feature new life sciences space and student accommodation.

The plans could create 1,900 jobs and apprenticeships while the team behind the development, McLaren Property, Property Alliance Group (Alliance), Moda Living and Kadans Science Partner, have said the scheme could provide a £138m economic benefit.

The scheme has been designed by architects Hawkins Brown, Sheppard Robson and Simpson-Haugh and would also include green space and pocket parks as well as improved pedestrian and cycling routes. There could also be a GP surgery, a new community centre, retail and cafes.

If approved, McLaren Property working alongside Kadans would deliver 740 student bed-spaces and 218,556 sqft of technical real estate respectively.
