In what is one of the UK's largest property deals of the year, the Police Authority has agreed to locate Greater Manchester Police Force Headquarters at Central Park. The new 240,000 sq ft Force HQ is scheduled to complete in March 2011, which coincides with the proposed opening of the Metrolink line to the city centre.

Central Park is the UK's first truly urban business park. It covers some 182 ha with a capacity to accommodate up to 500,000 m² (5,382,100 sq ft) of commercial floorspace, of which the first phase has an outline planning consent for 130,000 m² (1,400,000 sq ft) of high quality offices. It has superb links to Manchester City Centre and the region's transport networks, including its own Metrolink station, and is destined to become the city's business park.

Since development started, Ask:Goodman has let 275,000 sq ft of Grade A accommodation - 175,000 sq ft occupied by Fujitsu Services, with a further 100,000 sq ft building forming One Central Park, a world class research, development and training centre designed to stimulate job creation and encourage investment in the region

The latest 43,700 sq ft phase, Madison Place, is available in five new office buildings, ranging in size from 5,304 sq ft up to 13,523 sq ft. The Central Manchester University Hospitals NHS Trust has signed up to take the 7,267 sq ft Unit C on a ten year lease.
