Former Manchester United footballers Gary Neville and Ryan Giggs have unveiled images of their planned 700,000 sq ft city centre development.
The St Michael’s Partnership, formed by the two ex-footballers and entrepreneur Brendan Flood, have joined with Rowsley, BCEGI and Manchester City Council for the project.
It’s planned for a largely disused area of Manchester city centre and will comprise of a five-star hotel, apartments, office space, three public spaces and a synagogue.
It will be in The Jackson’s Row area of Manchester, surrounded by a number of key regeneration areas such as the Civic Quarter, Spinningfields and St John’s.
The luxury hotel will comprise of 200 rooms and 153 one, two and three-bed apartments.
Gary Neville, director of Jackson’s Row Developments Limited, said: “Our vision is to deliver the biggest statement in architecture and development that Manchester has seen in modern times.
“Our wish is for St. Michael’s to become the premier destination in the city that people come to enjoy all year round.
“Through the provision of three stunning new public spaces, St. Michael’s Square, The Steps and The Garden, we’re committed to bringing back to life such a key, underused area of the city, which connects Albert Square and St. Peter’s Square through to Deansgate and onto Spinningfields.”
