Manchester agency to support launch of Gary Neville’s £200m regeneration scheme

Gary Neville said: “We are delighted that Manchester City Council was minded to grant planning permission on St Michael’s and are hopeful that the Secretary of State will endorse that decision and allow us to work towards delivering this prestigious mixed-use scheme of the highest quality.

“St Michael’s will set new standards in design and quality of accommodation which will reinforce the city’s position both nationally and internationally.

“We are pleased that Roland Dransfield is now part of the wider St. Michael’s team – who are all working together to help deliver an exciting and distinct new district within Manchester city centre.”

Roland Dransfield is also retained by architects practice Hodder+Partners, who successfully re-worked plans for St Michael’s, resulting in Manchester City Council minding the application for approval.

Caroline Aspinall, Roland Dransfield’s associate director, said: “With our property expertise and journalist credentials – and our existing relationship with Hodder+Partners – the agency is uniquely placed to deliver on the St. Michael’s marketing brief.”
