Number One, First Street
Number One First Street was completed in March 2009. It is a striking office building on the site of the former Gaythorn Gas Works; a plot of land at the side of the railway viaduct that runs along Whitworth Street West.
The building was erected after the gasworks had been demolished the land cleared and. Initially it was a grey clad structure designed for the British Council and completed in 1991. At that point it was called Grand Island. Subsequently the British Council moved out of Manchester and in 1997 British Telecom became the occupant. As part of the new “First Street” development, the building was transformed and re-branded as “Number One First Street” (http://manchesterhistory.net/manchester/tours/tour7/area7page16.html Manchester History Net includes pictures of the redevelopment).
