The City of Salford is a borough of Greater Manchester, which has 32 towers either built or under construction over 100 m, the highest number of towers in any metropolitan area in the United Kingdom outside of Greater London.__TOC__

History and future development

At, Salford Cathedral was the tallest building in Salford for 118 years following its construction in 1848. However it was not until the 1960s and 1970s that the first tall building boom in Salford occurred. During this period a number of mid-rise brutalist residential buildings were constructed, predominantly in the Pendleton area of the city as a means to house significant populations affected by industrial decline. In 1966, the City Central tower finally overtook Salford Cathedral as the tallest building in the city.

Through the 1980s and 1990s, few significant proposals came to fruition. However, there has been a renewed interest in skyscrapers in Salford in the past two decades with a number of proposals being brought forward. Significant proposals included the Greengate Tower and the Canopus Tower A, both in the Greengate area of the city, which would have been the tallest towers in Salford and the city's first official skyscrapers if built.[1] However due to economic factors in 2008 these towers were never constructed.

Unlike most major cities in the United Kingdom, there are no height restrictions and local planning officers generally adopt a laissez-faire attitude towards city centre high-rises in Salford. MediaCityUK in the Salford Quays area of the city has been at the forefront of development in the last 10 years with a number of mid-rise towers being completed. These include the Blue, MediaCityUK which became the tallest building in the city in 2010, the X1 Media City collection of four 85 m (277 ft) towers and the TheHeart, MediaCityUK.

Into the 2020s, Salford Quays will continue to be an important growth district for Salford with two further tower clusters emerging in Cotton Quay and in the second phase of the X1 development in MediaCityUK. The Cotton Quay development will see a collection of six towers over constructed including the Tower One skyscraper which will become the second-tallest building in Salford when completed. The second phase of the X1 development will see five towers constructed, including three over . The tallest tower in this development will be Tower 1 which at is due to become the sixth-tallest building in Salford when completed. If all future plans come to fruition, then Salford Quays will contain one skyscraper over and five further high-rises over 100 m.

The Greengate area of Salford is the second major development area for the city. Its location close to central Manchester and relative underdevelopment over the preceding decades means that a number of significant new proposals have come forward. In 2018, the Anaconda Cut became the tallest building in the city and the first building in Salford to reach a height of over 100 m.[2]

If all future plans come to fruition, then Greengate will feature two skyscrapers over 150 m and a further six high-rises over 100 m. The biggest development proposal is Waterloo Place which when completed in 2024, at, will become the second-tallest building in Salford, sixth-tallest in Greater Manchester and sixth-tallest in the United Kingdom outside London.

Waterloo Place lies in close proximity to Anaconda Cut and will be joined by the three Greengate Park North towers, the tallest of which will reach . With the completed Affinity Living Riverview, proposed Gorton Street Tower and the 110 m Irwell Towers, Greengate will soon have a coherent cluster of towers over 100 m alongside a number of smaller towers.

If all future proposals come to fruition, Salford could contain 100 buildings over 50 m tall as well as 14 high-rises above 100 m and four skyscrapers over 150 m. When considered with Manchester city centre, which it borders, the area will contain over 60 high-rises over 100 m, the highest in the United Kingdom outside London. If considered separately from Manchester, then at (14) Salford will contain the fourth-highest number of high-rises of any city in the United Kingdom after Greater London (over 250), Manchester (48) and Birmingham (30).
