42nd Street centre design

Designs for Great Ancoats charity unveiled

27 Aug 2010, 17:13

Manchester architect Maurice Shapero and Bolton-based construction consultants Bradshaw Gass & Hope have designed a new mental health centre for charity 42nd Street on Great Ancoats Street, Manchester.

If delivered the building will become a new base for the charity which works with young people between the ages of 13-25, living in Manchester, Salford or Trafford.

The design shows two interlocking cubes clad in a white stone.
