New square at heart of Manchester gets first screening
VIDEO footage of how a new Manchester square will look has been has been released today to coincide with an international property event to promote the city to a global audience.
The animated film, shown today at the MIPIM event in Cannes, highlights the new City square between the iconic CIS Tower, New Century House and the Hanover building at the heart of Manchester’s NOMA neighbourhood.
The new development will provide a safe and welcoming space that promises a mix of cafés, restaurants, bars and shops nestled amongst the characterful buildings of the NOMA listed estate. It is due to be completed by September 2015.
The footage shown at the event aims to promote Manchester’s property sector to a global audience.
The new, as yet un-named City Square, supported by the European Regional Development Fund and Manchester City Council, has been designed by Manchester-based architects Planit-IE, and contractors Casey are on-site undertaking initial construction works.
