TOWNSHEND LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS
FIRST STREET, MANCHESTER
This 20 acre scheme will extend the heart of Manchester City Centre and become a new international gateway to the city.
An amazing public focal point will be created by one of Europe's largest living green walls and the extensive public realm works will include a new 18 metre wide, 300 metre long tree-lined boulevard. The boulevard establishes itself as the defining hallmark of the scheme which has been designed to provide flexible areas for a range of activities. A mix of commercial, residential, retail, amenity and leisure uses will combine to create a distinctive sense of place and vibrancy at all times. A series of key spaces have been formed along the central spine.
