Developing this land and bringing it back into use is an important part of our plans to deliver 36,000 new homes in the next ten years

Cllr Gavin White, Exec Member for Housing and Employment, Manchester City Council

The Rodney Street site will deliver a total of 129 homes with 91 market homes subsidising the cost of 38 affordable homes. These have been capped at the Manchester Living Rent, making them accessible to people on housing benefit.

Cllr Gavin White, Exec Member for Housing and Employment, Manchester City Council said “Post-industrial Manchester left a lot of unused, brownfield land across the city – with the largest swathes across north and east Manchester. Developing this land and bringing it back into use is an important part of our plans to deliver 36,000 new homes in the next ten years – and we have an ambitious target to make sure 10,000 of these are genuinely affordable to Manchester people.”
