Riverside is a cluster of five commercial office buildings located on the banks of the River Irwell in Manchester, on New Bailey Street. The development boasts the unique proposition of a self-contained business park on the frontier of the city centre's key commercial area.

In 2011, a £5m refurbishment project created a pair of new reception areas, a redesign of public realm space and allowed a full upgrade of the floor plates, providing an impressive office building for both staff and clients alike.

Over 1.5 acres of public space and a private courtyard are provided for your staff to use and relax in. Riverside is a pleasant and tranquil place to work, and is something of a sanctuary within the city thanks to careful use of timber-decked seating areas, sculptures, planting and water features. While boasting all the advantages of a city centre office, you will be isolated from the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy a revamped landscape within metropolitan surroundings.

With floor plates of up to 17,800 sq ft, Riverside offers a scale of office space not often found in the refurbished city centre office market. The building contains a wide range of space planning options, resulting in improved spatial efficiency and lower square footage costs.

The Riverside offices are on the edge of the city, on the ring road, so it is an ideal base for customers with a combination of regional and city centre based clients. The Lowry Hotel and Salford Central train station are directly opposite.

Four of the five buildings at Riverside are named after printing typefaces – Aldine, Baskerville, Cloister and Delphian – because the site was once home to the Manchester Evening News. The complex was constructed in the late 60s and early 70s and the architects who designed the complex currently occupy the fifth building – the Executive Suite. Riverside was proud to receive an award for being a stunning example of the architecture of its period.

Flexible open plan suites mean this premium office space in Manchester can be taken from 150 sq ft to 60,000 sq ft.

Furthermore, Riverside currently offers shops to let in Manchester city centre, in the popular Spinningfields area.The office buildings are home to around 1500 workers, while there is also significant passing footfall. Other retailers in the neighbourhood include a recently opened Waitrose supermarket and the renowned Mark Addy restaurant.
