Manchester's The Hotspur Press Redevelopment Plans Backed

Plans to redevelop The Hotspur Press, a former cotton mill on the banks of the River Medlock, have been approved by Manchester City Council’s Planning Committee.
 
The scheme brought forward by Manner aims to preserve much of the existing brick exterior, "celebrate the heritage of the building" and includes 595 student bedrooms across a 37-storey tower, a public square and public realm improvements.
 
The planning application was unanimously approved by the Planning Committee.
