The scheme has been shaped through ongoing dialogue with local stakeholders, cultural partners, and neighbouring landowners, aligning with the Canal Quarter Masterplan SPD and supporting the wider Lancashire Growth Plan.

Marco Living and Axis-RE are pleased to announce that Kanteena will remain in its current location while we develop our comprehensive masterplan for the Brewery Lane site, with plans underway for a permanent cultural venue that will enhance Lancaster's offering.

Whether it’s policy announcements or roundtable discussions, the national housing conversation is shifting, and fast. This summer, Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner announced a £39bn affordable housing programme, with 60% of the 300,000 planned homes to be delivered through social rent. It’s an ambitious public housing investment and marks the start of what the government is calling a “decade of renewal.”

Marco Living and Axis-RE are taking essential safety measures at the Brewery Lane site as an essential first step to prioritise public safety while enabling the delivery of our wider community-focused development strategy for Lancaster.

Axis-RE and Marco Living have completed the purchase of a landmark site in Lancaster city centre, marking a move that unlocks one of the region’s most significant regeneration opportunities.

Sustainable mixed-use developments are often described as the future of urban regeneration. Dynamic spaces where people can live, work and unwind in close proximity. But in practice, many of these schemes fall short.

With approximately 12 months remaining until practical completion, The Joinery’s construction journey continues to progress well in Manchester’s Northern Quarter. Since breaking ground at the end of 2023, our team has made excellent progress, with the superstructure now virtually complete across the site and several more trades commenced.

The property sector is filled with bold claims, but Axis stands apart. Founded by an experienced and values-led leadership team, we operate with the mindset that development should be both commercially successful and socially responsible. With combined expertise spanning decades, what truly sets us apart is a shared vision: real estate that enhances communities rather than disrupts them.

Axis RE and Marco Living have agreed a deal with Singapore-listed real estate company City Developments to fund 1NQ, a 261-apartment scheme in the Northern Quarter. City Developments, which has paid £75.6m for NQ1, its fourth PRS project in the UK.
