Development Securities and Property Alliance Group have secured planning permission for a 27-storey residential development in central Manchester, UK.
Construction work on the £40m Axis Tower will commence early next year with tendering for the project due to start immediately.
The joint venture will develop the city centre site near Deansgate and Manchester Oxford Road stations into a 172-unit residential tower over 153,000 sqft. The development is due for completion in 2016.
Matthew Weiner, director, development securities said: "Axis Tower is a significant development opportunity for us and will deliver an iconic new residential building in the heart of Manchester.
