History
Planning
The planning application was submitted to Salford City Council in August 2015,[4] and planning approval was granted in March 2016.[5]
Construction
In 2017 Elliot Group commenced construction of the complex, then called The Residence,[2] but progress was delayed the following year when main contractor Forrest went into administration.[6] Work stalled again in 2020 pending the outcome of a wider fraud investigation,[6] before restarting in February 2022 following the acquisition of the site by Legacie Developments, which renamed the project Embankment Exchange.[7] Construction was initially expected to complete in 2023,[2] and in October 2024 it was announced that completion was due by the end of the year.[8] The buildings were completed in 2025.[2]
