NOMA, Mixed-use development in Manchester, England
NOMA is a large mixed-use development in northern Manchester city center that combines office buildings, housing, shops, and public spaces in one interconnected area. Pedestrian pathways link the different sections throughout the complex, creating easy movement between zones.
Development began in 2010 with the construction of One Angel Square, transforming what was once Manchester's industrial district into a modern commercial area. This project marked a broader shift in how the city's northern section was used and valued.
Sadler's Yard serves as a central meeting place where public events, markets, and performances happen throughout the year. Locals and visitors gather here to experience the work of community artists and musicians in action.
The area is well served by Manchester Victoria Station and multiple tram stops, with parking and bicycle storage available throughout. Visitors will find clear pathways and accessible entry points to explore the different sections.
One Angel Square achieved an exceptionally high environmental rating due to advanced sustainability features built into its design. The building demonstrates how modern construction can incorporate responsible ecological practices from the start.
