An 18-storey building that would feature the UK’s highest workspace rooftop pool has been proposed for land near the Lowry Hotel.
The landmark scheme is being led by commercial property giant Bruntwood and would replace the existing Alberton House on St. Mary’s Parsonage. The Alberton would be completed in 2025, with work starting later this year, if planning permission is granted.
The building's focal point would be its rooftop "holistic wellness centre". This would include a pool, a hydrotherapy vitality pool, hot and cold treatment rooms, fitness studio, yoga terrace, physio room, and changing and shower facilities.
