Old control tower to become a bar
18.11.09
Manchester Airport is to convert its old (and out of use) control tower in Terminal 1 in to an elevated 110sq m luxury bar with 360 degrees of the airport and runway. The airport is currently seeking a partner to manage the new business once complete.
The space is arranged over 4 levels, with Level 5 featuring the open-plan bar. There, passengers will have unobstructed views over the airfield, airport and local countryside. Access is from Level 2 – the main retail area in Departures - via a lift or a spiral staircase within the core of the building.
Manchester Airport said the control tower would contain ‘an exciting space with unparalleled views,’ and that it would be ‘comfortable, intimate and special’. The bar is part of a recent £50m upgrade of Terminal 1.
