The Factory is way too grey and cream for my liking, is that it for the panels/ renders or are they going to add some colour to it..A real marmite building.
Love it or hate it, it's certainly different, depending on your point of view.
I don't dislike it, but it's..., erm....
If people can see past the outside, I appreciate that shouldn't be the point of the building, I think people will be blown away by the inside of the building.
Factory International.
The truck lift on the side of the blob/pissed Space Invader isn't being clad. It was supposed to be clad. The exterior will remain concrete.(taggers delight)
More changes during construction. Looks like a window is being added? It had been fully clad.
That's it.
The design and appearance of Factory has changed continually throughout the build. It's been continually tweaked, adding to the cost of the build.
A fourth round of consultation on Far East Consortium’s Red Bank neighborhood, part of the £4bn Victoria North project, has begun.
The consultation that began today focuses on three Red Bank plots off Dantzic Street. FEC wants to construct seven buildings containing 1,550 homes on this site.
The proposed buildings are set to range from six to 34 storeys. Together, they would offer around 21,500 sq ft of ground floor retail, commercial, and leisure space.
The 1,550 homes would be a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments and townhouses. Some would be build-to-rent, while others would be designated affordable. Others still would be available for open market sale.

Really like it, at least they’ve tried something different, not the usual pig ugly, depressing grey rectangles polluting the cityscapeA real marmite building.

Located next to the developer’s completed Local Blackfriars scheme, the building would provide 250 apartments.
Salboy has submitted a screening request to Salford City Council for the 26-storey project, known as Trinity 2.

London-based Q Developments has lodged a planning application with Salford City Council for the 538-bedroom development close to Salford Crescent train station and the university.
A 27-storey tower would replace the former McDonald’s regional head office on Cross Lane, subject to planning approval.
Now comprising a single tower with a 19-storey shoulder block, earlier proposals for the scheme outlined plans for a 40-storey tower on the site.
