The regeneration of the New Bailey area of Salford Central is set to be boosted by a new 11-storey office development while the Middlewood Locks development will see a third major block of flats.

Plans for 2 New Bailey Square, designed by architects Allford Hall Monaghan Morris, will complement the recently completed One New Bailey development, whichwas built by Bowmer & Kirkland.

The building will provide around 250,000 sq ft of office space with ground floor retail. The three-way joint venture between Muse Developments, Legal and General and the Homes and Communities Agency is currently considering funding options with a view to starting work on site in early 2017

Carillion is building two new blocks next to the planned 31-storey residential tower

English Cities Fund has also gained planning for a 33 storey tower of 843 flats and a multi-storey car park also created by architect AHR at Middlewood Locks developments.

DPP has been planning advisers to English Cities Fund, which is a partnership of Muse, Legal & General and HCA, on the Salford Central project for 10 years.
