The appointment comes amid MediaCityUK’s 10-year plan to add 26.9m sq ft of space to the scheme, doubling its existing footprint.
Ten buildings will be built across eight plots. This will include more than 500,000 sq ft of business accommodation; over 43,000 sq ft of live/work units; 1,871 residential units, including town houses; more than 47,000 sq ft of retail and leisure space; and over 1,800 car parking spaces.
Chris Reay, MediaCityUK property director, said: “Canning O’Neill’s strong track record working with Peel on the Digital World Centre since 2012, coupled with their strong performance over many years, and in-depth knowledge of the Salford Quays and MediaCityUK’s office market, made it a natural progression to take on these additional assets and support the delivery of our vision for MediaCityUK for its next decade of evolution.”
Mark Canning, Director at Canning O’Neill, said: “MediaCityUK is a major player in the office market. Due to high demand, the availability of space in the wider area is in decline and MediaCityUK is uniquely placed to ensure that quality office space is available to fuel future growth.”
