Manchester City Council: St Michael's

St. Michael’s is a mixed-use development featuring a world-class hotel / residential tower and 180,000ft2 of sustainable workspace. The scheme creates a vibrant new public square comprising new bars and restaurants alongside the retained Sir Ralph Abercromby Pub.

RealWorth was appointed by Manchester City Council to identify the social value that is likely to be created by the development. We worked with the Developer, the Local Authority and the Design Team to describe and quantify the social impact that the scheme will have on the neighbourhood and the wider City Region.

The evidence provided in the report helped gain the support of the Manchester City Council for the scheme’s advancement.
