New Islington is an inner city regeneration area of Manchester, historically a part of Ancoats district. A previous attempt to regenerate the area was made in the 1970s, and from then until the millennium, it was known as the Cardroom Estate (a reference to the number of former mills in the area).
The current development was one of several millennium village projects around the UK seeking to regenerate inner-city areas. When funding to redevelop the area was secured in 2002, the name New Islington was chosen as it was it was the original name for the area; the name appears on the 1840 Ordnance Survey map and there is also a street with that name.
The New Islington area is bounded by Great Ancoats Street (west), New Union Street and New Islington (north-east), Weybridge Road (east) and Pollard Street (south). There is also a Metrolink stop as part of the general expansion of the tram system. It will be the first stop on the new Piccadilly–Droylsden (and eventually Ashton) line and is situated adjacent to Pollard Street.
