Serviced Office Description

This flexible workspace centre in Ancoats is located in the iconic Manchester office building known as the Express Building, once the Manchester headquarters offices of the Daily Express.

This Grade-II listed building was built in 1939 in the futurist art deco style and is often mistaken for being much more recently built due to its ‘space-age’, futuristic appearance.

It was listed in the 1970s less than forty years after its construction and remains Manchester’s youngest Grade-II listed office building.

The 6-storey property on the ring road stands at the head of the Northern Quarter on the edge of the Ancoats district.
