NW Conservation Heritage and Sustainability Group Rylands Building Tour
About this Event
Currently still under construction, lead by Jeffry Bell Architects and under construction with DOMIS, the design team will be taking the group around the live site as it enters its latter stages of construction. This is a unique opportunity to see the project in process and discus the key interventions and complexities of this incredibly exciting project.
"John Rylands was a successful Manchester entrepreneur. The Rylands Building was built in the 1930s as a show of prosperity and ambition. Combining heritage and beauty with a reimagined vision for the future."
The former Debenhams was originally a wholesale textile warehouse, originally constructed in 1932 and designed by Harry S Fairhurst. Now Grade II listed, the building is one of the last and largest textile warehouses in the city.
Tours will start promptly at 16:00. There is no opportunity to join mid tour as this is a live site, please make sure you arrive in good time. This is a tour of a live site, as such accessibility is limited.
