Property development company Capital & Centric has revealed plans to build Piccadilly Ferrous, 107 design-led apartments in Manchester’s East Neighbourhood
The social impact developer has launched a consultation on the £28m Ferrous, their latest development on Chapeltown Street.
Featuring a rooftop residents’ garden, two café-bars, ground-level green pocket parks and a new space for pop-up events, the development is just a stone’s throw from Piccadilly station.
Capital & Centric spearheaded the development of Piccadilly East as a new community for the city.
‘Design-led, spacious homes’
Tim Heatley, co-founder at Capital & Centric, said: “Piccadilly East is fast becoming a neighbourhood with real personality and we’re chuffed to be bringing forward the next part of the jigsaw with Ferrous.
“Not only will it bring in more residents, it’ll create a place for the community to hang out. The outdoor pocket parks and the cabin will be the perfect space for a programme of foodie residencies or pop-up community events.
“We really wanted to continue the ethos we established from the get-go at Piccadilly East, with design-led, spacious homes and a proper community vibe where people know their neighbours.
“It’s been awesome seeing residents get to know each other at the Piccadilly East puppy parties and art battles, and with Ferrous there’s a lot more to come.”
Ferrous is the next investment in Piccadilly East, with Capital & Centric spearheading regeneration of the neighbourhood alongside Strategic Regeneration Framework area set to include projects such as Victoria House by Forshaw and The Castings by Packaged Living.
Capital & Centric is consulting the community on the plans before submission of a planning application to Manchester City Council this Autumn.
