Office: Green light for our latest office scheme at MediaCityUK

Salford City Council Planning Department have recently approved the development of the new BREEAM Excellent, 148,000ft2, six-storey office building within Peel’s MediaCityUK estate in Salford Quays, Greater Manchester.

Designed by Chapman Taylor’s Manchester studio, the building known as ‘The Regent’ has been pre-let to BupaUK and will occupy a prominent position fronting the Manchester Ship Canal and provide a contemporary and secure working environment for up to 2,000 staff. This development represents one of the biggest commercial property lettings in Manchester in recent years.

This is Chapman Taylor’s latest MediaCityUK design commission and continues our masterplanning and architectural role on site having delivered the first phase of MediaCityUK which was officially opened by The Queen in 2012.

The preferred contractor for the 2nd stage tender has been selected and Chapman Taylor are now working closely with the team towards the completion of this stage in readiness for the works to commence on site in January 2016, due for completion in 2017.
