Media & Construction Updates
Progress across the site this week — concreting the main lift shafts, four of which serve the building, main drainage going in beside the original arched Mill entrance, sandblasting the concierge building's façade brickwork, and the main roof AOVs being concreted.

Filmed on the roof at Brunswick Mill with the Manchester skyline behind him, Commercial Director Daniel Wright sets out why the mill's position is unmatched — canal-side in New Islington, with Ancoats and the Northern Quarter within walking distance, Holt Town Metrolink five minutes away on foot, and Manchester Piccadilly a short drive from the front entrance.
A walk through the central courtyard for this week's update. Drainage and groundworks are under way, laying the hardcore base needed to relay Brunswick Mill's original cobblestones — lifted, refurbished and returned to the courtyard they came from. The courtyard remains on track for completion by the end of October 2026.
A first look inside this week's works at Brunswick Mill — interior fit-out on the 5th floor, exposed brickwork coming back to life on Level 6, plastering progressing across levels 1–4, and the central courtyard taking shape. Click through the photos alongside.

Why This Matters for Brunswick Mill
The proposed No10 North reinforces Manchester's position as the UK's second economic hub, driving investment, job creation, and long-term economic growth. As businesses and professionals are drawn to the city, demand for high-quality homes is expected to rise. For Brunswick Mill investors, this creates the potential for stronger rental demand, greater capital growth, and the opportunity to invest in one of Manchester's most exciting regeneration areas.
Brunswick Mill's restoration retains the mill's original brick facade, column grid and canal-side setting on the Ashton Canal, while introducing 153 contemporary residences, landscaped courtyard space, and secure cycle storage — a model Arrowsmith continues to apply across its heritage portfolio.
