🏗️ ConstructNet Intelligence Overview

The No1 Knightsbridge development represents another major build-to-rent investment within the North West residential market, continuing the trend of large-scale urban regeneration and PRS-led delivery across regional town centres.

The project is expected to generate substantial subcontract and supplier opportunities across:

• groundworks and RC frame packages

• scaffolding and access systems

• façade and cladding works

• MEP installation

• internal fit-out and finishing trades

• landscaping and public realm works

• residential infrastructure and utilities

• logistics and temporary works support

  
  

The phased nature of the programme may also create staggered procurement opportunities as delivery progresses through different construction stages.

Stockport continues to attract significant residential-led regeneration investment as developers target strong commuter connectivity into Manchester alongside wider town centre transformation initiatives.
