The Great Northern Tower is a Шаблон:Convert sloped high-rise apartment building located on Watson Street in Manchester city centre, England. It is adjacent to its namesake, the Grade II listed Great Northern Warehouse. The building was proposed in 2001 and construction began in 2004 with completion in 2007. The total cost of the development was £32,800,000 and comprises 257 apartments. It was designed by Assael Architecture[1] and built by Carillion.[2]

The sloped style of the building was designed to complement the curved roof of the neighbouring Manchester Central Convention Complex, and create a distinctive silhouette to the Manchester skyline. Clad in glass, metal, and grey tiles, the tower slopes in profile from 10 to 25 storeys, and has two levels in the basement.[3]
