T1 - Union Coliving Apartments - Viva, Manchester
The Project
Located on Water Street, off New Quay Street in Manchester, this landmark high-rise development redefines urban living with a 32-storey residential tower and two lower basement levels, offering 390 modern apartments. Designed for young professionals and students seeking a vibrant, community-oriented lifestyle, the building combines privacy with shared social spaces. Each unit type is crafted for shared living, accommodating groups of four, three, or two, with every resident enjoying a personal bedroom and bathroom, a lockable door for added security, and shared kitchen and living areas. Additionally, there are self-contained studio apartments, including fully accessible DDA-compliant units, catering to single occupants and those with specific accessibility needs.
The communal amenities prioritise convenience, comfort, and connectivity, featuring private work booths, a large kitchen and dining area, a cinema room, and shared spaces perfect for socialising. Residents also benefit from an on-site launderette, storage facilities, a bike lock area, and a fully equipped gym with shower and changing areas, providing everything needed for a balanced lifestyle within the building’s vibrant community.
