This is how a new office block and arts space planned for the Mayfield development would look.
Developers have already submitted a major application to revive the derelict area behind the station with a new city centre park - the first in 100 years.
Now they've released images for another corner of the site, which would be home to a 13-storey office block with a ground floor space for art, music and theatre.
The plans have been sent by the Mayfield Partnership to Manchester council's planning portal.
The area behind the station has been empty for decades but has been earmarked by the town hall as a centre for £1.4bn regeneration.
Earlier this month plans were submitted for the first stage - the creation of a new park on the banks of the River Medlock, a 545-space car park and a nine-storey office building.
The application sparked a huge debate in the city, with many in favour of bringing in a new green space to this corner of the centre. But some locals are concerned it could attract anti-social behaviour.
Now new images have been sent to the council for the second phase.
They show a 13-storey block on Baring Street, with large windows and 'expansive' views on what would be the new Mayfield park.
It's not mentioned which companies are interested in becoming tenants in the block if it receives planning permission, but the project has 220,000 sqft of office space.
Developers are also asking for permission for the ground floor to be given a variety of uses, spanning from a museum, gallery and cafe to a bar, theatre or cinema.
The council hopes Mayfield will become a new cultural hub for the city, one which sparks regeneration into surrounding areas.
Planning documents sent to the town hall team said: "The activities taking place on site will encompass many of Manchester's cultural highlights and generate significant momentum for other key regeneration objectives, such as Factory."
The Mayfield Partnership is made up of Manchester council, Transport for Greater Manchester and property developers U+I and LCR.
