Seven massive developments that will change Manchester neighbourhoods forever face crunch votes
Plans for controversial student housing will be put to a vote at a meeting next week - where councillors will discuss seven developments in Manchester. One of the student blocks planned in Hulme which has already been knocked back twice after a local campaign against it is back on the agenda for a third time.
Here are all the decisions to be made when the planning committee meets at the town hall on Thursday for the last time before the summer break... Etihad Stadium's £300m expansion The plans to extend the Etihad's north stand would add an extra 7,900 seats taking the total capacity to 61,968. The current club shop would be knocked down to make way for an eight-storey building featuring a new store, ticket office and museum as well as workspace for small businesses and start-ups.
Three years on, fresh plans for 27, 21 and 16 storey buildings on the Echo Street sites were submitted to the council. Unlike the previous proposal, the latest application would be exclusively for students with 1,224 bedrooms available of which 196 would be offered at a discounted 'affordable rent'. Developer Cityside said the city needs more student accommodation and that 10 pc of the 261 beds would be offered at a discount to students who need it. The council's planners have backed the proposal recommending its approval.
