The opening date of One Port Street, a major new luxury residential development in Manchester’s Northern Quarter has been announced. The highly anticipated new £195 million pound development will open in February 2026. The latest imagery gives a glimpse of the premium apartments in the 32-storey building – offering a space where residents can live, work and socialise within Manchester’s most vibrant community.
The landmark building, developed by Select Property, features a blend of opulent and industrial design with 477 open-plan apartments, a 2000 sq ft swimming pool, spa pool and an urban garden – contributing to the development’s 22,000 sq ft of public green space.
Created in partnership with prestigious architects SimpsonHaugh and combining high end city living with the industrial aesthetic the Northern Quarter is famous for, the apartment design features exposed textures for a refined, boutique finish. Each apartment, available in one, two and three bed formats, feature the highest-quality materials and an excellent standard of craftsmanship throughout. Thoughtful design details including eye-catching glass balcony balustrades, with intricate patterns inspired by textile patterns from Whitworth Art Gallery, in a connection to the region’s industrial past.
Beyond each living space, the One Port Street community will have an array of high specification indoor and outdoor working and socialising spaces to choose from, including a stunning arrival experience with 360° firepit, state-of-the-art gym and yoga studios and beautifully designed co-working spaces. Meanwhile, Paganini’s 7th floor resident lounge and external terrace (named after a tavern which stood on Port Street 200 years prior), will offer stunning city views and private hire options, including a secret room with hidden door ‘The Hideout’, available exclusively for residents.
Designed to bring together the comforts of home with the feel of a boutique five star hotel and the thriving, creative spirit of the Northern Quarter, this is the flagship scheme of Select Property’s new Prestige Collection, and marks a significant investment in the area.
Ian Simpson, Founder Partner, SimpsonHaugh comments; “One Port Street embodies the rich architectural diversity of Manchester. This development offers more than just a place to live, work, and socialise – it’s a sanctuary within the city’s most creative and lively neighbourhood. It’s a true example of what a sustainable, modern community should be.”
