The developer and contractor are now working together across three schemes in Salford and Manchester with the partnership’s latest venture, the 25-storey Victoria House on Great Ancoats Street, due to begin in September.
Forshaw Land and Property’s 177-apartment project forms part of the Piccadilly East masterplan and is to be constructed on land currently occupied by Manchester Safe Deposit Centre, which is in the process of relocating to New Cross.
The company’s move will free up the site for Domis – the construction arm of developer Salboy – to start work later this year.
Speaking to
Place North West, Forshaw director Lyndon Forshaw said his firm was in discussions with other developers active within the Piccadilly East regeneration zone, including Capital & Centric and Packaged Living, about drawing up plans for an area of public space.
