If the thought of owning a property alongside two of the biggest institutions in British television appeals, then new apartments at a development branded MediaCityUK offer an opportunity.
In addition, Old Trafford - the home of Manchester United is 'down the road' - or rather a three-minute walk away. If you're more impressed by the revival in fortune of United's rivals, then the City of Manchester Stadium is a 15-minute drive to the east.
The regeneration of Salford Quays will provide a home to departments in the BBC that are being relocated from London, as British authorities continue to enhance provincial cities. Britain's biggest commercial network, ITV, will also be establishing a complex in Media City, with the University of Salford following suit with a new headquarters.
The Media City residencies come in the form of two towers called The Heart and Number One, located alongside the three BBC properties and within walking distance of a new stop on the Metrolink tram network, connecting to Manchester's city centre, links to other parts of Britain, and an international airport with direct flights to Hong Kong.
A total of 378 one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments boast views of Media City and the surrounding area, which includes Salford Quays, another impressive example of waterfront regeneration projects that have been taking place in British cities.
The two residential towers are at the centre of the GBP650 million (HK$8.24 billion) scheme which covers 1 million sqft and developed by Peel Media, part of the Peel Group, one of Britain's biggest property and transport companies. Peel Media will also own a studio complex at Media City, where some of the most popular programmes on British television will be made.
