Capital & Centric and Kamani Property Group have submitted plans for the new Ancoats Works scheme to the Manchester City Council.
The £50m project will see redevelopment of a disused storage depot into canalside apartments, townhouses, gardens and a new café or store. The proposed designs are for 193 homes, with a mix of one- and two- and three-bedroom apartments, and townhouses facing Carruthers Street.
If approved, work could start on site in early 2023.
Kamani Property chief executive Adam Kamani said: “The design strikes the perfect blend between old and new – retaining parts of the historic building with the iconic Ancoats Works signage, whilst creating design-led homes on what’s currently a pretty unloved, industrial site.”
Adam Higgins, co-founder at Capital&Centric, added: “More and more young families, retirees and downsizers are wanting to call the city home, as well as the more stereotypical young professionals. Ancoats Works responds to that, with a mix of townhouses and apartments to help foster a diverse neighbourhood.”
