Gillespies designs support planned new phases of MediaCityUK

Gillespies has prepared landscape and public realm design proposals to accompany the masterplan by Chapman Taylor Architects, to support 20-year plans for new phases of MediaCityUK.  These ambitious proposals have just submitted by developer The Peel Group.

In support of the new plans which propose four new phases of MediaCityUK expansion, Gillespies has also prepared the townscape and visual impact (TVIA) chapter of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA).

This builds on Gillespies' previous work as landscape and public realm designer of the completed Phase 1 of MediaCityUK, which spans 8.5 hectares and opened its doors to the BBC, University of Salford and numerous media businesses last year.
