| - Deansgate Square, formerly known as Owen Street, is a skyscraper cluster on the southern edge of Manchester City Centre, consisting of four towers, the tallest of which is 201 metres (659 feet). The site is just south of Deansgate railway station and north of the Mancunian Way, bounded by Deansgate, Owen Street and the River Medlock. Manchester City Council adopted a framework in the early 2000s, known as the Great Jackson Street Development Framework, which earmarked the site as an acceptable location for high-rise buildings. The framework was enacted to encourage building development as the site had been vacant for many years and was perceived to be isolated as it was bounded by major arterial roads. In 2016, the scheme was revived with a planning application for a cluster of four skyscrapers – the tallest being the South Tower at 201 metres (659 feet). The South Tower surpassed the 169-metre Beetham Tower as the tallest building in Manchester in November 2018. Construction on the tower complex officially began in July 2016, with developer Renaker beginning construction on the South and West Towers which are 201 and 141 metres tall. In October 2017, construction commenced on the North and East Towers, which are 122 and 158 metres tall. Overall completion of the development occurred in late 2020. As of January 2021, additional towers are under construction in the adjacent vicinity as part of the Great Jackson Street Development Framework, including the 152 metre . (en)
