The development is a joint venture between the developer Far East Consortium and Manchester City Council[4] and is one of the first to be constructed within the wider Victoria North masterplan to build 15,000 homes over 15–20 years.[5]
History
Planning
A planning application for three towers was submitted to Manchester City Council in May 2020, as part of the then-named Northern Gateway masterplan.[6] Planning approval was obtained in January 2021.[7] In March 2021, the masterplan area of which Victoria Riverside was to form part was renamed Victoria North.[8]
Construction
In 2021, the construction contractor CR Construction (UK) was appointed to build the three towers.[3]
Park View and City View towers were topped out in early 2023; the third and tallest tower, Crown View, was topped out in November of that year.[2] City View contains 128 apartments, all of which are classed as affordable.[9] In July 2024, the development was expected to complete in early 2025.[10]
Amenities
Crown View tower includes approximately 4,500 sq ft (420 m2) of amenity floorspace comprising co-working spaces, a gym and yoga studio, a bar and lounge, and a private dining area.[11]
