Leeds property investor creates new investment hub in Manchester warehouse

Leeds’ Town Centre Securities PLC (TCS) is responding to the changing needs of its tenants with plans to refurbish and repurpose the space to suit its property community.

This follows from a decade on from the original transformation of the Carver’s Warehouse into an office destination in Manchester’s Piccadilly Basin.

The 22,000 sq ft four-storey Grade II listed canal side office building, built in 1806 and one of Manchester’s oldest surviving warehouses, was converted in 2007 and is home to architects, engineers and property consultants.

TCS has invested in refurbishing the stone-built building to further enhance the offering to tenants with works starting on site in June this year.

The refurbishment plans are to be implemented by chosen contractor, Stonehouse Projects and will include break out area, shared workspace, enhancement of the existing food and beverage offerings and communal areas which will house meeting pods.

Many existing tenants at Carvers Warehouse have remained loyal to the development for the past 10 years, including Civic Engineers, building services engineers Max Fordham and architects The Harris Partnership.

In addition, new tenants taking over 2,000 sq ft of office suites include structural engineering consultancy firm Renaissance; IT and services consultant Oddsphere and chartered surveyors Hynes Illingworth.
