in the Spinningfields development increases as Allied London
unveils plans for Manchester’s largest office scheme of
recent times.

Building
services, vertical transportation and fire strategy advice
has been provided to date to support an application for
the 460,000 sq ft building at 3 Hardman Street –
to be known simply as HQ. It will include 426,000 sq ft
of top quality office space and 30,000 sq ft of retail.
Construction is due to start in September 2006.
There will be four blocks of between 10 and 15 storeys,
each with a self-contained entrance lobby and with floorplates
of up to 36,000 sq ft.
HQ – designed by Sheppard Robson specifically for
financial occupiers – will house Barclaycard, which
last week agreed to take up to 100,000 sq ft at Spinningfields.
The design for this building follows on from our successful
involvement on the adjacent 3 & 4 Hardman Square developments.
