Scheme proposes makeover for 130ha site spanning Manchester and SalfordHow the new proposals could lookMaccreanor Lavington and Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios have outlined proposals for a 7,000-home regeneration project on a site next to Manchesters grade II-listed Strangeways Prison.The draft Strategic Regeneration Framework (SRF) for Strangeways and Cambridge outlines plans for wide-scale investment and development across the 130ha city fringe location over the coming decades.Manchester and Salford city councils will submit proposals for the project to their respective local authority committees next week.The investment programme estimates the development could deliver up to 7,000 new homes across seven neighbourhood areas, an additional 1.75m sq ft of commercial floorspace, a new urban park and 4,500 jobs.The draft SRF aims to support Manchesters target to become a zero-carbon city by 2038 and responds to other environmental factors in the development areas, such as potential flooding linked to climate change.Aerial view of the site next to Strangeways PrisonIt will also look to engage with the Ministry of Justice regarding the long-term future of HM Prison Manchester, which Manchester council said remains a significant barrier to the regeneration ambitions in this part of the city.Salfords cabinet will meet on 11 March and Manchesters executive three days later.Bev Craig, leader of Manchester council, said: We know this area has challenges, including the prison that presents a key barrier to the regeneration of the area, but we also know that there is energy and a community brimming with potential.Among the firms which have worked on the draft are landscape architect Schulze & Grassov,real estate firm Avison Young, Civic Engineers and environmental consultant Useful Projects.Strangeways Prison was completed in 1869 and designed by Alfred Waterhouse, the architect behind Londons Natural History Museum and Manchester Town Hall.
