Contour (towers)
United Kingdom
The 1019th tallest building in the world
Contour is a residential development under construction in the Castlefield area of Manchester, England. Once completed, it will comprise two 154-metre (505 ft), 51-storey skyscrapers designed by SimpsonHaugh architects as part of the Great Jackson Street masterplan, adjacent to the Deansgate Square skyscraper cluster. The towers incorporate a faceted design with chamfered edges, giving them a multi‑planar profile. Developed by Renaker, the project remains under construction, with Tower 1 structurally topped out in February 2026 and external cladding installation ongoing. When completed, they will be the joint seventh-tallest buildings in Greater Manchester.
