Moss Side Regeneration

Regeneration project update

March 2025

 

The Moss Side regeneration project is more than building new homes - it’s about creating a community that reflects its rich heritage, meets local needs, and enhances the environment for future generations.

We’ve taken on board feedback from past consultations, and now we’re focusing on site 1 – The Reno site, where 213 new homes are planned. This update shows how we have changed the plans following feedback, and how you can share your views to help shape key areas such as local heritage, social value, and green spaces.

Site 1 will be made up of 213 much-needed new affordable homes (128 social rent and 85 Rent-to-Buy) the buildings will range between 3 to 10 stories in height, and include a mix of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5-bedroom homes. It will also include wheelchair accessible properties and dedicated older persons homes.

Sites 2 and 3 (Barnhill Street and land at Westwood Street and Raby Street) are paused for now while we focus on site 1. Site 4, which was the Greenheyes Adult Education Centre, is now no longer part of our plans for regeneration.

Steering Group Report - November 2024

Following the public consultation in September 2023, and the subsequent meeting with the Steering Group in Nov 24, a decision was made to review designs, feedback and viability. 

Over this period we:

  • Reviewed your feedback and updated designs
  • Appraised the schemes financial viability
  • Explored funding environment
  • Meet regularly with MCC to discuss the brief and legal position
  • Working in partnership with MCC and WISSC

Because of the above, a decision has been made to prioritise site 1 The Reno in terms of designs and consultation. Sites 2 and 3 are paused, they are still allocated to low-rise family housing.
