Angel Gardens is a 110 m (360 ft) tall, 35-storey skyscraper of 466 rental apartments in Manchester, England. As of February 2024, it is the 16th-tallest building in Greater Manchester.

It forms part of the 20-acre (8-hectare) NOMA redevelopment. In January 2017, the investor Apache Capital Partners and the developer Moda Living secured £85 million in financing from the German bank Deutsche Pfandbriefbank.[2][3]

Following the collapse of the main contractor Carillion on 15 January 2018, construction was put on hold;[4][5] two weeks later, the contract was transferred to Caddick Construction and construction re-commenced.[6]

Angel Gardens was co-designed by architects Fuse Studios and HAUS Collective.[7]
