MCAU

The Silk Street Manchester project reimagines affordable housing with a focus on sustainability, community, and a connection to the city’s rich industrial heritage. By transforming a brownfield site overlooking the Rochdale Canal, we are building more than just homes; we are weaving a tapestry of green living, social connection, and economic opportunity.

Catalyst Business Park is a landmark industrial and logistics development set on a 96‑acre waterfront site in Widnes, Cheshire.

The scheme will deliver up to 1.8 million sq ft of flexible industrial space, ranging from smaller units to large‑scale warehouses across five carefully planned plots.

The masterplan transforms a former industrial landscape into a sustainable, future‑ready destination. Flexible building layouts, phased delivery, and integrated environmental measures including ecology areas and energy‑efficient design ensure the development can adapt to changing occupier needs over time.

The development will play a key role in revitalising the waterfront, delivering long‑term economic and community benefits.Innovative architecture and thoughtful placemaking underpin the scheme, balancing operational efficiency with sustainability to create a high‑quality industrial environment for Widnes and the wider region.
