New images of the garden courtyard at Kampus in Manchester

New images have been released which reveal the developers’ vision for the courtyard garden space at the Kampus development in Manchester.

Capital & Centric and Henry Boot Developments plan to create two floors of independent restaurants, bars and shops around the lush garden, which will sit adjacent to Rochdale Canal. The goal is to provide much-needed green space and a relaxing environment for residents of, and visitors to, the Kampus development.

Kampus is a new residential development in a prime location in Manchester city centre. The site, formerly part of Manchester Metropolitan University, will see over 500 apartments being delivered in new-build and refurbished buildings entirely for the Build-to-Rent sector.

Sitting adjacent to Manchester’s famous Canal Street, the project retains an 11-storey, 1960’s former office tower, which will be extensively refurbished after being stripped back to the original concrete frame and extended by three additional storeys. The former academic buildings, built decades after the tower, have been demolished to make way for the new-build elements, which will be tied into the tower building.

Completing the site are two listed, derelict mill buildings, which will be refurbished and transformed to complement the wider scheme.

The development will host an extensive range of artisan retail and commercial spaces set around a secluded garden and central courtyard. Residents will also benefit from a private landscaped podium, secure parking and cycle spaces and a rooftop residents’ gym and lounge which will boast unparalleled views across Manchester.

Chapman Taylor was appointed by contractor Mount Anvil as Architect and Lead Designer for phase one, which will see 475 units completed by 2020.
