The building was designed by Harry S Fairhurst in a neo-classical style and displays some Art Deco and Edwardian Baroque motifs such as square windows and roof sculptures which were prevalent during the 1920s.[2] It stands 46 metres tall with 11 storeys and is clad in Portland stone. It was one of the tallest office blocks in the United Kingdom when completed in 1927.[3] The building built by J. Gerrard & Sons Ltd of Swinton was Grade II listed in 1982.[4] Ship Canal House was sold in 2011 for £22.8 million.[5] References1. ^{{Cite news |title=The House on Ship Canal House |url=http://theskyliner.org/post/17284928473/the-house-on-ship-canal-house |work=skyliner.org |accessdate=2012-10-05}} {{Manchester B&S}}{{GreaterManchester-struct-stub}}2. ^{{Cite news |title=Ship Canal House |url=http://www.skyscrapernews.com/buildings.php?id=835 |work=skyscrapernews.com |accessdate=2012-10-05}} 3. ^{{Cite book |title=Manchester - Pevsner Architectural Guides |last=Hartwell |first=Clare |page=164 |year=2001}} 4. ^{{Cite news |title=Ship Canal House, Manchester |url=http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-388249-ship-canal-house- |work=British Listed Buildings |accessdate=2012-10-05}} 5. ^{{Cite news |title=Ship Canal House sold to HIMOR Group for £22.8m |url=http://menmedia.co.uk/manchestereveningnews/news/business/commercial_property/s/1406822_ship_canal_house_sold_to__himor_group_for_228m |newspaper=Manchester Evening News |date=1 February 2011 |accessdate=2012-10-05}} 4 : Grade II listed buildings in Manchester|Buildings and structures in Manchester|Office buildings completed in 1927|Limestone buildings |
