Far East Consortium (FEC), the developer working in partnership with Manchester City Council to deliver Manchester’s Victoria North regeneration project, is set to launch Falcon – a new 189-home development in the city’s vibrant Red Bank neighbourhood.
The 20-storey, brick exterior tower will bring to market 189 contemporary one, two and three-bedroom homes on Dantzic Street and ground floor commercial units. The new open plan homes, including a number of apartments with private terraces, will feature generous floor to ceiling windows providing dual aspect views of Manchester city centre and the surrounding Red Bank area.
Residents of Falcon will also have access to the development’s landscaped podium gardens, as well as FEC’s newly unveiled residents’ amenity, The Clubhouse. The Clubhouse will be a standalone feature building and will include a residents’ lounge, co-working space, fitness and wellness suite, and restaurant.
The Hawkins\Brown-designed Falcon will put residents on the doorstep of Manchester’s new City River Park – a 113-acre park which forms part of the broader vision to transform Red Bank under the ‘Wild Urbanism’ concept.
Falcon will sit adjacent to FEC’s Victoria Riverside scheme, where 634 high-quality homes are currently under construction across three towers – including 128 homes available on an affordable basis through a combination of shared ownership and rent to buy.
Falcon represents the latest development to come forward in Red Bank – a short walk to Manchester city centre – as a new residential community emerges in the neighbourhood. Spanning seven new and existing neighbourhoods, Victoria North will deliver 15,000 new homes over the next decade – making it the biggest urban regeneration project in Manchester’s history.
Andrew Bradley-Nixon, Sales and Marketing Director at FEC, said:
“As one of the first developments within Red Bank, Falcon will make owners pioneers within this fast-emerging neighbourhood and a future community comprising more than 40,000 people across Victoria North. With more than £1bn being invested in the area through our joint venture with Manchester City Council – including the future City River Park – it promises to create a green, well-connected inner-city district with a thriving sense of community.
