Bruntwood is a family-owned commercial space company offering retail units to let across Manchester city centre. Locations range from Deansgate to Piccadilly, where there are potentially hundreds of customers who work on the upper storeys of our office properties as well as everyday passing trade. Bruntwood retail occupiers benefit from high footfall, excellent visibility as well as the considerable advantage of being situated in a managed office property.

Below are just three of the Bruntwood properties containing shops to let in Manchester:

City Tower

The City Tower development benefits from a high level of footfall from Piccadilly Gardens, the Metrolink exchange and Manchester's business district. Our portfolio of properties in the immediate vicinity also houses around 5,000 staff. City Tower is the highest office building in Manchester, and in 2005, became home to two Peregrine Falcons, which had laid eggs on the top of the building.

The Manchester Club

The Club is a grade 2 listed building from 1870, transformed into a space for two restaurants, two retailers and offices. It was once the headquarters of the Liberal Democrats in the era of the Whigs and Tories, while Lloyd George and Winston Churchill are famous past members. Celebrities would often dine at the Reform Restaurant, while MUFC stars of the George Best era favoured it for post-match celebrations.

1 New York Street

Situated in the heart of the city, retail and leisure lease holders of 1 New York Street benefit from the custom of thousands of office staff in the vicinity, as well as around 14,000 daily commuters. 1 New York Street and its neighbour the Exchange are home to a series of underground passageways. Constructed beneath the two Manchester offices in the 1950s they were designed to ensure the telephone network was safe in the event of attack.
