A 1920s warehouse in Shudehill, the gateway to Manchester’s Northern Quarter, could be the site of a new Zoku aparthotel.

The warehouse which was built in the 1920s has been empty for the last 20 years.

Plans would see its demolition with a replacement 13-storey aparthotel. It would be operated by Amsterdam-based aparthotel operator Zoku.

Zoku has been involved from the outset and the development will be designed to suit their specific requirements whilst still respecting the scale and character of Manchester’s Northern Quarter.

The proposals will be considered by members of Manchester council's planning committee in the next few months.
