The first spade has hit the ground to build 199 new homes at Glenbrook’s new Lumina Village development in Manchester following Caddick Construction’s appointment to deliver phase B of the flagship scheme.
Following groundbreaking, the team is making great progress on-site as they build 146 new apartments spanning two separate blocks, one of which will also comprise retail space on the ground floor. The residential scheme will also include the design and build of 53 new townhouses.
Building work commenced in January 2024 and is scheduled for completion in summer 2026. The project, funded by Clarion Housing Association, forms part of a £170m regeneration scheme that will deliver 639 apartments and townhouses. Lumina Village seeks to transform the 12-acre former Kellogg’s site in Old Trafford. Once complete, Lumina Village will also include 200,000 sq. ft of offices, a 100-bed hotel and a primary school.
Dave Saville, Regional Managing Director at Caddick Construction North West, comments: “Our residential portfolio continues to grow across the North West, with a wealth of exciting developments in the works, including 131 new energy efficient apartments in Stockport and 63 new social housing apartments in Salford on behalf of the Guinness Partnership.
“It’s with great pleasure that we add Lumina Village to our ever-growing pipeline of new projects. With work progressing at pace on-site, we look forward to bringing these contemporary homes to this exciting new corner of Trafford on behalf of valued development client, Glenbrook.”
