Mayfield next to Piccadilly Station is becoming a key new growth area. Earlier this summer Bowmer + Kirkland kicked off building work on the first commercial major build, a 233,000 sq ft building to be known as The Republic.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nThe Republic (left) and Poulton, together worth around \u00a3400m<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The second office building, The Poulton (95,000 sq ft), designed by Bennetts Associates, and a multi-modal transport hub featuring the city\u2019s largest cycle parking facility will start on site in 2026.<\/p>\n
In total the Mayfield scheme will consist of 1,700 homes, 1.6m sq ft of office space, generating thousands of jobs, a 650-bedroom hotel, retail and leisure facilities to the 24-acre site in a once-derelict part of Manchester.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
