A new era for Old Trafford

A 100,000-seat stadium.
£2bn of regeneration.
One mile from your door.

Manchester United's proposed new 100,000-seat stadium, designed by Foster + Partners, is set to become a global landmark, attracting over 1.8 million visitors a year and driving billions in regional investment.

For Islington Parkside, that means a stronger local economy, faster tram and rail links, and inward investment that lifts asset values across the surrounding district.
