This scheme is being called Stockport Exchange, and it involves the building of a block that will cover 64,000 sq ft, as well as a multi-storey car park with room for 399 vehicles. The state-of-the-art building will feature an environmentally friendly ‘living’ wall, solar photovoltaics and charging points for electric cars. Stockport Council and Muse Developments, an urban regeneration firm, are teaming up on the project.
Financing for the project came from the Getting Building Fund, which was set up by the government and delivered by local authorities. In total, £4.2 million was set aside for the completion of this scheme, which is intended to revitalise the centre of Stockport and make it more appealing to businesses.
