We care about our planet and its people, so what better way to ensure Glassworks' occupants have an easy and healthy journey to work than to offer exceptional bike storage, so they can store their rides securely and enjoy comfortable, spacious, high-end showering and changing facilities. Our bike storage space is more than functional. It looks and feels like the sumptuous changing rooms in a high-end spa. Large lockers mean fresh going-out or work clothes can be kept at the office for an effortless and sustainable commute.

Ground floor facilities encourage occupants to grab a drink on their way to the office, socialise, relax, collaborate and connect.
Suspended lighting illuminates comfortable seating areas to encourage conversation and to create calm relaxation or work corners. Barista service sets a reassuring vibe for those grabbing a coffee on their way to the office or simply watching the world go by. Bright blues reflect Glassworks' values of trust and confidence. Booths, a coffee bar, single seats, snug banquettes, a breakout lounge and seating clusters make the ground floor a welcoming, future-ready environment, inspiring creativity, ambition and connection.

Located in Manchester's Northern Quarter, Glassworks retains the original façade of one of Manchester's oldest factory's which now connects to a glass tower on what was once the site of a glass dealership in the early 1900's. Built for a forward-thinking generation, Glassworks is steeped in history, and is designed with a focus on sustainability, health and wellbeing. With a nod to the hard graft of factory workers and entrepreneurs of the past, Glassworks reflects modern working life, offering a spectrum of spaces to nurture innovation and inspire the next chapter in the Northern Quarter's vibrant lineage.
