Trinity Islands is a proposed high rise residential development in Manchester, England, consisting of four towers between 39 and 60 storeys split over two 2.2-acre sites; Tower D1 at 183 metres (600 ft), Tower D2 at 169 metres (554 ft), Tower C1 at 146 metres (479 ft) and Tower C2 at 119 metres (390 ft).[1] The project comprises 1,950 apartments, with a total build cost of £535m.[2]

The project began when the original developer Allied London proposed five towers on the site, with the tallest – at 67 storeys – reaching a height of 213 metres (699 ft).[3][4] If built, this tower would have overtaken Deansgate Square South Tower to be the tallest building in Manchester as well as the tallest building in the United Kingdom outside of London. The scheme would have delivered around 1,390 homes, costing approximately £1.3 billion.[5] This development was approved in July 2017.[6]

The site was subsequently sold to Renaker in 2017 for £13.4m, who redesigned the scheme.[7]
