Urban Splash Newsplash - November 2018
Welcome to our November edition of Newsplash - a monthly round-up of all things Urban Splash, featuring new homes, scheme launches, commercial news and much more.
This month, we've got updates on our "It Will Never Work" exhibition, the next phase of Town House at New Islington, as well as our partnership with Property Alliance Group at Irwell Riverside. We welcome a raft of new commercial tenants to our schemes in Liverpool and Manchester and also give you the opportunity to own your very own three-storey home at Port Loop in Birmingham.

We'll also be bring the exhibition to Sheffield from 21 November.
