Airport City, Manchester Airport, UK

12th January 2012: Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne, today unveiled plans for the development of a £650million 'Airport City' -- the first of its kind in the UK -- at Manchester Airport.

Designated as one of the UK Government's next generation Enterprise Zones, the Airport City project aims to transform Manchester Airport from a transport hub into an international business destination in its own right.

Building on the global connectivity offered by the airport location, the 150-acre regeneration scheme will deliver over five-million square feet of new high-quality business premises, with the aim of attracting international companies that would not previously have located in the region, or even the UK.

The vision for Airport City has been created by Manchester Airports Group (MAG) with support from Urban Strategies Inc., Drivers Jonas Deloitte, and Jones Lang LaSalle, along with 5Plus Architects, AECOM, Davis Langdon and Planit. For more information, please see: www.airportcity.co.uk
