Specialist real estate lender Maslow Capital has provided a \u00a350 million two-stage facility to Linear Living for a residential development at Lord Street in Manchester.<\/p>\n
The financing covers both pre-gateway bridging finance and a subsequent development facility for One Lord Street, a planned 23-storey building comprising 251 apartments and townhouses. The site is located at a gateway into Manchester city centre.<\/p>\n
The facility was structured to provide bridging and development finance under a single framework, with both phases agreed before gateway approval. This approach aims to reduce duplicate due diligence and legal work whilst providing cost certainty during the early stages of the development cycle.<\/p>\n
The scheme forms part of the Green Quarter regeneration area and sits adjacent to the Strangeways and Cambridge Strategic Regeneration Framework area, a joint initiative between Manchester City Council and Salford City Council.<\/p>\n
This is the second transaction between Maslow Capital and Linear Living, following an \u00a318 million financing arrangement for the Trafford Gardens development in Manchester.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Sky Mapson, senior director of origination at Maslow Capital, said: \u201cAgreeing both phases from the outset, pre-gateway, gives sponsors a level of certainty that\u2019s hard to achieve in today\u2019s market.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stephen Holmes, chief executive of Linear Living, stated that securing a joined-up facility was central to the project\u2019s progress, providing \u201ccertainty and keeps the project moving forward.\u201d<\/p>\n
