Originally the Manchester Corn Exchange, this historic landmark was given a new lease of life and developed into a high end shopping centre after the terrorist bombings of 1996 caused extensive damage. The Triangle’s transformation was part of a larger restoration of surrounding City Centre which was overseen by Manchester City Council.
Frogmore purchased the building in 1989 and after the bombings used our in house planning and design skills to secure planning consent for a £20m mixed use redevelopment. The new centre comprised 150,000 sq ft of lifestyle retail and restaurant space and 56,000 sq ft of offices on the upper floors.
The centre was opened in August 2000 by HRH Prince of Wales.
