Scheming in Salford

Property Week reports competition ahead for Media City in Salford. English Cities Fund, a joint venture between Legal & General, Muse Developments, and the Homes & Communities Agency, has lodged what it says is the biggest planning application in Salford’s history. They want to develop shops, offices and housing across a site linking the University, Chapel Street and Spinningfields. It covers an area equivalent to 21 football pitches.
