Birley Fields office development in Manchester

HBG Construction has started building the £7.0 million Birley Fields office development as part of a major regeneration scheme for Hulme and Moss Side, Manchester. Client for the project is HBG Properties Ltd, which was selected as preferred developer by Manchester City Council in March this year, prior to planning application being submitted.

The contract involves the construction of two 3-storey office blocks on a green field site. The steel framed buildings will provide office units of 3,251 sq.m [35,000 sq.ft] and 3,716 sq.m [40,000 sq.ft] together with parking for a total of 345 vehicles.

Featuring impressive hi-tech glass and panel exteriors and having exceptionally high entrance receptions, the buildings will be completed for handover at the end of September 2002.
