Bruntwood SciTech has officially submitted planning proposals for a £17m transformation of Manchester One.

The transformative project, delivered by Bruntwood SciTech – a joint venture between Bruntwood, L&G and Greater Manchester Pension Fund – combines a full refurbishment of the existing 21-storey tower with a bold four-storey extension.

It brings the total building size to 160,000 sq ft and introducing significant new amenities designed to support the health, wellbeing and productivity of the building’s business community.

Manchester One currently hosts 30 businesses across its 131,000 sq ft of space. The works will see the building reimagined as a modern, sustainable workspace while retaining and celebrating its 1960s architectural heritage.
