Manchester is set to welcome a new riverside food hall in a former warehouse on the banks of the Irwell.
Shipyard, as it will be known, sits on the corner of Water Street and New Quay Street. The former warehouse, called Albert Shed, has sat empty for years, and now Allied London wants to revitalise the space.
Taking inspiration from similar food hall concepts like Mackie Mayor in Northern Quarter, Lisbon’s Time Out Market, and the Kyiv Food Market, the developers say they hope to create an ‘eclectic and curated destination’. Shipyard sits in the St John’s area of the city, which will soon be home to Factory International.
