The First Street area is a significant recent development in the city centre, offering employment, leisure and entertainment opportunities for Manchester residents. Over the past decade, phased development has seen transformational change at First Street, delivering a mix of cultural, hotel, leisure, retail, residential and commercial development.
At the February 2020 Executive meeting, the Council’s Executive approved in principle a draft Strategic Regeneration Framework addendum to help guide further development within the First Street area of the City Centre. The Executive requested that the Chief Executive undertake a public consultation with local stakeholders and report the outcome to the Executive in due course, prior to a final framework being agreed.
The framework addendum focuses on three sites to the west of Medlock Street; Little Peter Street, One City Road, and the Premier Inn site. These sites provide the opportunity to further establish First Street as a leading commercial destination. The scheme will provide new connections to adjacent communities, including Great Jackson Street, Hulme and the Oxford Road Corridor.
