Cole Waterhouse is pleased to see Trafford Wharf shortlisted for the UK Planning Awards in the mixed-use category.
Set along the waterfront in Greater Manchester, the scheme has been designed as a well-integrated neighbourhood, delivering 382 Build to Rent homes across two towers, alongside purpose-built student accommodation and associated academic space. A network of landscaped courtyards, rooftop gardens, and shared spaces helps bring these uses together, creating a connected and active environment.
Being shortlisted reflects the strength of the vision for Trafford Wharf and its contribution to one of the region’s key regeneration areas.
We would like to thank the wider project team for their collaboration and expertise in bringing the scheme forward. This includes , , XO Square, Russell Bolton Consulting, , Orion Fire, Jameson Acoustics, .landscape, Safer Sphere, , Proximity, and Paul Butler Associates
The awards ceremony will take place on Thursday, 4 June 2026 at IET London: Savoy Place.
