Sheppard Robson is behind this mass timber office scheme in Manchester for developer Bruntwood

It has been recommended for approval but a final decision by the council, due last month, was pushed back into the new year.

The 拢400m plan will see several buildings demolished, including a 1960s tower.

Sheppard Robson is also behind a new 拢31m mass timber office in Greater Manchester. 

Developer Bruntwood claims that the so-called Ev0 黑洞社区, set to be built at Didsbury Technology Park in the south of the city, will be the country鈥檚 most operationally efficient new build workspace.
