Salford 'could become home to the stars'
19/10/2007
Central Salford could become a celebrity hangout when the BBC moves several of its departments to Manchester's mediacity:uk site at the quays, it has been claimed.
According to property development firm Prospect, estate agents are preparing for an influx of celebrities and TV personalities looking for a place to live when the BBC sets up shop on the Manchester waterfront.
As well as raising the profile of Salford, property prices in Langworthy, Broad Street, the quayside and other west Manchester districts are expected to increase, experts believe.
Chris Heath, managing director for Prospect, told the Salford Advertiser: "Broadway is perfectly located just at the edge of the media city and residents will get a real buzz out of living here.
"In less than four years it will be right in the thick of creative media hub and you'll have famous faces running in and out of the BBC."
ITV Granada is considering moving from its Quay Street headquarters in central Manchester to the quayside, which will soon be home to hundreds of creative, broadcasting and advertising firms.
