Originally designed by Leach Rhodes Walker, Studio KMA architects has reworked the proposal and delivering the scheme with The Heaton Group.
Managing Director John Heaton said: "This is our third Manchester scheme and a great opportunity for the business.
"The location of this site is superb, with a ten-minute walk to Chorlton or MediaCity and a ten minute tram ride into the city centre.
"With such significant development being carried out in the area, we are confident that Urban Green will be a welcomed neighbour to the vision of this new and vibrant neighbourhood."
The site also borders the Trafford Civic Quarter Masterplan, which covers the regeneration of a 120-acre site taking in Trafford Town Hall, the former Kellogg’s site including the University Academy 92 (UA 92) campus, stretching up to the A56/Chester Road and White City retail park.
