Trinity Islands is a residential skyscraper cluster under construction in Manchester, England, consisting of four towers between 39 and 60 storeys split over two 2.2-acre (0.89 ha) sites: Building D1 at 183 metres (600 ft), Building D2 at 169 m (554 ft), Building C2 at 146 m (479 ft) and Building C1 at 119 m (390 ft).[1][2] The project was designed by SimpsonHaugh and comprises 1,950 apartments, with a total build cost of £535 million.[1][3]
History
Original proposal
The project began when the original developer Allied London proposed five towers on the site, with the tallest – at 67 storeys – reaching a height of 213 m (699 ft).[4][5] If built, this tower would have overtaken Deansgate Square South Tower to be the tallest building in Greater Manchester, as well as the tallest building in the United Kingdom outside London. The scheme would have delivered around 1,390 homes, costing approximately £1.3 billion.[6] This development was approved by Manchester City Council in July 2017.[7]
Revised proposal
The site was subsequently sold to developer Renaker in 2018 for £13.4 million,[8] who redesigned the scheme[1] and lodged an application for 1,950 apartments with Manchester City Council in December 2021.[1] Planning approval was obtained in February 2022.[9]
Construction
Construction of the first tower, Trinity Islands Building D2 (169 m (554 ft)), renamed Vista River Gardens,[10] commenced in 2022.[11] Construction of the second tower, Building D1 (183 m (600 ft)) commenced in autumn 2023.[citation needed]
