Eden
Square Phase
Two start on
site
An
excellent
start to the
New Year for
Urmston with
construction
beginning on
Phase Two of
the joint
development
between
Trafford
Council and
Ask
Development’s
mixed use
scheme, Eden
Square.
North
West-based
Eric Wright
Construction
will start
on site of
the
multi-million
pound
shopping
centre
development,
being
undertaken
by Ask
Developments
in
partnership
with
Trafford
Council, in
mid-January,
2012.
Construction
work is
expected to
complete in
September,
2012.
Phase Two
of Eden
Square is
almost fully
let with
Iceland, Aldi and
Quality Save
taking the
three larger
units,
leaving just
3,000 sq ft
available on
Flixton Road
and 1,400 sq
ft in the
Square for
potential
tenants.
The
remaining
3,000 sq ft
on Flixton
Road has the
flexibility
to be
configured
into one,
two or three
units, which
Ask hope
will
encourage
local
traders to
this
prominent
location.
With
20,000 cars
per week
using the
shoppers’
car park,
Ask
Developments
is confident
that the
scheme holds
appeal to
both
national and
local
retailers,
with the
smaller
units in
phase two
ideal for
local
traders
interested
in becoming
part of the
scheme.
Leon
Guyett,
development
director at
Ask
Developments,
said: “This
is a great
start to the
new year. We
have
successfully
brought a
number of
national
retailers to
Urmston,
however, it
has always
been our
intention to
attract
local
shopkeepers
to the
scheme too
and the
remaining
units in
Phase Two
are flexible
enough to
meet the
requirements
of smaller
tenants.
We will
continue to
work with
both the
Urmston
Partnership
and the Town
Centre
Management
team on
achieving
that
ambition.”
Executive
Councillor
Mike Cornes
said: “I am
delighted
that we have
such great
news for the
New Year and
are now able
to begin
work on
Phase Two,
especially
as the
majority has
already been
let. I look
forward to
seeing the
second phase
take shape
and the
tenants
moving in to
complete
this
multi-million
pound
development.”
