Select Property Group and Ask Real Estate have received planning consent for a 684-unit PRS scheme in Salford, Greater Manchester.
Embankment West features a mix of studios and one-, two- and three-bedroom flats split over 12, 25 and 32 storeys.
The building, which will operate under Select’s Affinity Living brand, is specifically designed for the millennial generation that wants to live in central city locations with access to communal facilities.
Large ground floor lounge areas will be open to the public and connect to an external landscaped area. The mezzanine level will feature private co-working spaces and a gym. Level 13 features a roof garden, media room, yoga studio and private entertainment space with views over the city.
The site at Embankment West forms part of Salford Council’s Greengate Regeneration scheme, which includes the creation of over 3m sq ft of residential, retail and commercial space.
It is Select’s second development in the quarter, with its City Suites scheme offering serviced apartments for business travellers due for completion in December 2016.
