A development company is proposing a 29-story apartment building in the Anchorage area of Salford Quays, Salford, Manchester, U.K., the Manchester Evening News reported in April. The developer, Cole Waterhouse, has submitted designs for Anchorage Gateway, a project it called a “landmark” tower of luxury apartments. The Salford council’s planning panel approved an outline application last year. It called for the creation of 290 apartment units. The developers recently submitted more details about their plans. They’re now calling for less commercial space in favor of more residential units and amenities.

Cole Waterhouse CEO Damian Flood said, “. . .this development will be a key scheme in the ongoing regeneration of Salford.” While the original planning application called for no affordable housing, more than GBP1 million (US$1.26 million) is to be committed to local projects, including more Metrolink services.
