Select’s 477-flat Manchester resi tops out
One Port Street, a 33-storey residential tower on the edge of the city’s Northern Quarter, has reached its highest point as the scheme heads towards completion next year.
Select Property’s 477-apartment Manchester development is backed by a £128m development loan provided by Maslow Capital. Renaker is the contractor working on the scheme.
Comprising a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, One Port Street has generated a combined £180m in sales since it launched – the most raised from a single development in Select’s history, according to the developer.
The popularity of the scheme among investors points to strong demand for highly amenitised homes, according to Adam Price, chief executive at Select Property.
“With the development nearing fully sold, we know there is a real desire among Manchester’s residents and investors for a new age of luxury experiential living anchored by world-class amenity.”
Amenity provision at One Port Street includes a private resident lounge, a 360° firepit, 2,000 sq ft of leisure facilities including a swimming pool, a gym, and fitness studio.
On the seventh floor, residents will find Pagini’s, a rooftop terrace and resident lounge overlooking the city.
“As a developer we have a responsibility to make our cities better and create an environment where people don’t just live and work but thrive,” Price said.
“Through our design, mix of amenities, and people-centred approach, we’re excited to provide a residence that prioritises wellbeing and community as we near completion.”
One Port Street was designed by SimpsonHaugh with Deloitte advising on planning.

We don’t consider anything under 55 storeys tall these days. Why in countries like China new builds are almost touching the Moon.

I’m a fan of SHP but this one lacks imagination.

needs to be atleast 150m, lets think long term when more and more people will want to be close to the city and have luxury living apartments.

Simpson Haugh ‘designs’ are fast becoming a plight on the Manchester City Centre area. SH and the City planners should know better than to impose this series of dull and unimaginative buildings on the City. They have zero consideration of the public realm and time will tell what their work has done to this great City.
