Manchester-based charity Embassy plans to create 40 modular homes made from repurposed shipping containers to provide secure housing for the city’s homeless people, in partnership with developers Peel L&P and Capital & Centric.
Embassy Village would be located on a self-contained, currently derelict site owned by Peel L&P, below the railway arches between the Bridgewater Canal and River Irwell in Manchester city centre. Capital & Centric is advising on the delivery of the scheme and Jon Matthews Architects is the designer. The full project team, which provided its services to Embassy pro bono, is detailed below.
The aim is to create a new community to help the city’s homeless and vulnerable men get back on their feet. The modular units created from shipping containers would be transformed into safe, secure homes and the charity would provide 24-hour on-site security, as well as wraparound support of at least six hours per week to each resident to help them ident
