The Green Quarter is an area of Manchester, England, just north of the city centre between Cheetham, Strangeways and the River Irk.
From the mid-nineteenth century, the area, then known as Red Bank, [1] was a slum housing impoverished Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe, but is now home to digital start-ups and e-commerce businesses, new apartments, microbreweries, gin distilleries and restaurants. [2]
Manchester's Green Quarter is a relatively new district built on the northern edge of the City Centre. It comprises a series of large new building developments near Manchester Victoria rail station. The Green Quarter is home to the £800m NOMA [3] (North Manchester) development and One Angela Square, one of the most sustainable office buildings in Europe.
