Significant Milestone Reached At Square Gardens Development

Downing has reached a significant milestone at its Square Gardens development, marking the topping out of The Fernley, which will play host to 585 new apartments.

The Fernley, at 45 storeys, is due complete early Spring 2025 as the second phase of development at Square Gardens, and will join the Acer, set to open in Autumn 2024.

Designed for comfort and convenience, Square Gardens will provide tenants with hassle-free, community living in the heart of Manchester City Centre.

The Fernley is the tallest of the three towers being built on site at Square Gardens, as part of the wider regeneration project that will introduce 1,771 new homes to the thriving community on First Street.

Once complete, The Fernley will offer 585 stunning apartments, including 240 studios, 237 one-bedroom apartments, 94 two-bedroom apartments and 14 ultra luxury two-bedroom penthouse apartments. Each apartment comes fully furnished so it is move-in ready.

Residents of The Fernley will benefit from Square Garden's best-in-class facilities including a glass orangery with seating, state-of-the-art gym and wellbeing suite, private cinema room, co-working zones, lounge areas and meeting spaces.

Surrounded by 2.5-acres of landscaped gardens and terraces, residents of Square Gardens will benefit from one of the largest outdoor spaces in Manchester City Centre.
