What is THIS CITY?

THIS CITY is a new kind of housing company. We plan, finance and build homes in the communities that they are designed for.

THIS CITY was established in 2021with a mission to help meet the demand for high quality, low-carbon rental housing, and to do that with ‘a Manchester accent’.

Sustainability is the cornerstone of everything we do. Our homes have had sustainability designed in from day one, from the building fabric to how it operates and the practical features inside.

Our strategy looks to the long term by designing community-focused developments that foster human connection and strengthen existing communities. And whilst actively supporting inclusivity and diversity through the variety of rental choices available, we’re working to help new communities flourish.

What are you building?

Our ambition is to build 500+ homes a year across Manchester. In our first development, No.1 Ancoats Green, we are building a combination of 1 and 2 bedroom apartments and 3 and 4 bedroom townhouses available for rent and designed to appeal to a broad range of different people’s housing needs.

The blend of apartments and houses will flex to meet the needs of the areas we’re bringing forward for development. So the mix, number of bedrooms and configurations can be designed with the prospective residents in mind.

Why is it different to other types of renting?

Because we’re backed by Manchester City Council, some of the rent you pay goes to fund more services, including more homes and public spaces. So every resident is making a difference just by living in one of our homes.

We believe that places for rent can be a forever home, so our design and build philosophy focuses on creating generous low carbon living spaces with energy efficient features that keep costs down.

Our homes are designed to help residents secure long term, stable housing. We’re doing this by taking a modern approach to the rental market and applying Mancunian values to how and why they are financed, built and managed.

We also strive to bring the Mancunian spirit to what we do – by designing community focused developments that foster human connection and strengthen existing communities.

Sustainably built, consciously developed

Our homes have had sustainability designed in from day one, from the building fabric to how it operates and the practical features inside. So you can be confident that how you live will be planet-friendly now and in the future.

For example, on No1 Ancoats Green we’ve hit current embodied carbon targets for all apartments and achieved 2030 targets with our Townhouse design.

Hot water is warmed by an air source heat pump, a super-efficient way of extracting heat energy from the air outside.

And all our homes are electric only – so you can choose a 100% renewable energy provider and live a net zero life by making a few simple choices.
