History

Planning

The planning application was submitted to Manchester City Council in April 2020 for two adjacent towers, The Cylinder (subsequently renamed Three60) and The Blade, [4] to form the second phase of developer Renaker's Crown Street development, consisting of a combined total of 855 apartments across 950,000 sq ft (88,000 m2) of residential space. Three60 will contain 441 apartments. [5] The towers are to be connected at the lower levels by a podium containing 5,200 sq ft (480 m2) of commercial space. [6]

Planning approval was obtained in July 2020. [7]

Construction

Construction of the building commenced in 2021. [8] In March 2022, the Greater Manchester Combined Authority approved a £62.3 million loan to Renaker for the development project. [9] [10] Three60 is expected to be completed by spring 2024. [11]

The site of the two towers covers 2.7 acres (1.1 ha) and is next to Chester Road roundabout and the Mancunian Way. [6]
