Over the last few years we have helped our existing clients with the development of over 3.0 million square feet of logistics and industrial units.

We have provided assistance with the masterplanning, been part of the tenant marketing and negotiation process and played a key role in the design and procurement of the necessary infrastructure and individual plot units, including fit out.

We believe that our expertise and approach could be of benefit to yourselves and would like to briefly introduce our company and make you aware of the services we can provide.

We thrive on long term relationships which make up 80% of our business and can last for decades and we would welcome the opportunity to discuss how we could provide a service which meets your particular needs.

Green Light for Rochdale Riverside

by | Apr 21, 2017 | Blog, Hannan News

Rochdale Borough Council have approved plans for a new £70 million, shopping and leisure development that will drastically change its town centre. The project is being delivered jointly by Genr8 Developments and Kajima, in partnership with the council.

Reel Cinema, Next and M&S have already signed up for the scheme, with phase one set to deliver around 24 shops, restaurants and leisure facilities, across an excess of 200,000 square feet.

Our duties include MEP design consultancy services for the base build shell and core elements and landlords areas, Including thermal modelling and Part L analysis for each of the buildings.  Hannan Associates have worked closely with other members of the design team to develop innovative, landmark buildings, with effective and efficient building services solutions to meet the needs for each particular building.

Due to the nature of the development and location of the site, our role has also involved extensive dialogue and negotiations with all utility providers in the area, to deal with the extensive major utility diversions that will be necessary on and around the site, as well as dealing with the new supply connection requirements.

Rochdale Riverside is the latest edition to our list of town and city centre regeneration schemes that include Salford, Chester, Stoke, Wakefield, Blackpool, Dorchester, Doncaster and Stockport.

Bringing historic buildings back to life at Kampus

Bringing historic buildings back to life at Kampus

by | Apr 14, 2017 | Blog, Hannan News

The second phase of the £250M regeneration Kampus project has begun, with planning permission having been submitted for two derelict 19th century former warehouse buildings.

Minto & Turner and Minshull House, listed for their historical interest, are thought to have the only remaining untouched cobble street in Manchester running between them. Little David street will once again be open to the public after years of restricted access once the project is complete.

Many of the original features of the buildings have survived intact, and joint developers The English Cities Fund and Henry Boot are looking to follow a sensitive restoration plan to preserve as much of them as possible. The two warehouses will provide 59 characterful loft apartments along with circa 14,000 sq ft commercial space. As a fusion of old and new this important part of the Kampus masterplan will be a place to meet, socialise and enjoy the best independent bars and restaurants Manchester has to offer.

Hannan Associates played a key role in the design team from conception to Stage 3. Our design input included the thermal modelling needed to define the performance and specification of the envelope and the development of the energy and sustainability strategies to support the planning submission. In addition to the MEP design associated with the apartments our work included the development of flexible fit out options for the retail and restaurant units in the development.

We have been appointed to provide design advice and support in the specification of external cooling for the Camana Bay mixed use development in the Cayman Islands.

Envisioned over 20 years ago by Ken Dart to be the most livable and workable community in the Caribbean, Camana Bay is a 600-achre town that spans from sea to sea. Embodying the New Urban philosophy of live, work and play the site consists of thoughtfully designed commercial, residential, educational and recreational facilities.

 

 

Our work on the new development involves the consideration and development of trials for cooling system options to improve the comfort of tourists and locals using the external environment with a combination of shading and mechanical options.

Stockport Exchange Phase 2 Complete

One Stockport Exchange

Stockport Exchange

Eric Wright have completed the construction of One Stockport Exchange, a 50,000 sq ft office next to the town’s train station. The five-storey office is the first to be built within the Stockport Exchange regeneration area by Muse Developments, in partnership with Stockport Council.

Negotiations have begun for potential occupiers for the office which offers up to 10,850 sq ft floorplates across four floors. One of the ground floor retail units has been fitted out by Sainsbury’s, for a new ‘Local’ store which is now open.

The 115 bedroom Holiday Inn Express Hotel next-door is now also complete and open for business.

The scheme includes new pedestrianised public space outside the train station, and a new reconfigured road layout to improve station access, that provides a dedicated drop-off facility as well as the new taxi rank. The aim is to create a new gateway to Stockport town centre.

This is the second phase of development that we have worked on, as part of phase one of Stockport Exchange we designed the MEP services for the new 1,000 space multi-storey car park at Stockport train station.

Cushman & Wakefield and CBRE are joint agents for the scheme and the architect is Aedas RHWL.

‘’I have had a continued involvement with this project from the start and it is fantastic to finally see the finished buildings and landscape, this phase of  the development has really transformed the look and feel of the space immediately in front of the station entrance’’
