  • One World Class Architect One Unique Waterside
    ONEVESTASTREET.COM ONEVESTASTREET.COM ONE WORLD CLASS ARCHITECT ONE UNIQUE WATERSIDE LOCATION ONE VESTA STREET THE DEVELOPMENT Welcome to One Vesta Street, a new collection of tranquil waterside homes designed by world- renowned Rafael Viñoly Architects and set in the heart of vibrant Ancoats and New Islington on the eastern edge of Manchester city centre. So, what’s in a name? In ancient Rome, Vesta was the goddess of hearth, home and family. Vesta Street itself was the site of a mid 19th Century iron foundry that was occupied by the eminent engineer Willian Fairbairn, one of the pioneers who made Manchester the beating heart of the industrial age. This unique heritage coupled with the waterside location informed the design, layouts and finishes of One Vesta Street’s homes, with construction to industry-leading standards by the award-winning Eric Wright Group. One Vesta Street’s 169 apartments and three townhouses benefit from a 24/7 concierge, residents’ clubroom, outdoor amenity space, secure cycle storage and an option to purchase a space in the private parking courtyard. The culture, shops, bars and restaurants set amongst the historic mills of Ancoats are less than five minutes’ walk along the New Islington Marina footpaths, with the Northern Quarter right across Great Ancoats Street. For connectivity into the city and beyond, the New Islington tram stop is just two minutes from the front door, making the city centre and nationwide rail access only 10 minutes away. Heading East, the Etihad Campus is five minutes on the tram, with the rolling hills of the Peak District National Park and everything they offer just 20 miles away.

  • Eastlands Regeneration Framework: a 2019 Update
    Eastlands Regeneration Framework: A 2019 Update March 2019 March 2019 Contents 1. Introduction 2. A Vision for Eastlands 3. Eastlands: The Strategic Context 4. Eastlands: The Planning Context 5. Eastlands: The Regeneration Journey 6. Ambitions for East Manchester 7. Eastlands: A Revised Strategic Framework 8. Eastlands: Proposed Development Principles 9. Eastlands: New Opportunities 10. Implementation and Delivery March 2019 March 2019 1 Introduction Few areas better demonstrate the transformation of a city than East Manchester. Once the powerhouse of the Industrial Revolution and a hugely significant focus for manufacturing and production for the wider region, the area’s economy collapsed in the 1970s and 1980s as globalisation changed trade and investment patterns leaving industrial dereliction and communities left behind on an unprecedented scale. Today, after three decades of strong civic leadership, with the support of successive Governments and through the active support of key stakeholders and private sector partners, the East Manchester area has been transformed. A platform has been created for further investment that can drive a further phase of transformation in East Manchester to deliver physical, social and economic benefits for existing and future residents as a whole. As has been successfully achieved in the past this new phase of growth needs to ensure that the area’s success impacts on everyone’s life so that all East Manchester residents are positively encouraged to reach their full potential and have every opportunity to do so. At the heart of the renaissance of East Manchester has been the Etihad (formerly the City of Manchester) Stadium and the complex of sporting assets on the Etihad Campus (formerly Sportcity) that were developed for the 2002 Commonwealth Games.
