Peel L&P has submitted a planning application to build 400 houses on Hazelhurst Farm, a large plot of green space between the M60 and East Lancs road in in Worsley, Salford.
The firm hopes to create a new "walkable neighbourhood" in the village, with 56 percent of the land being left undeveloped for public open space, retained woodland, and green corridors.
In total, 370 objections have been made on Salford council's planning portal against the plan.
The council and the Greater Manchester Combined Authority have proposed the land be allocated to residential development as part of the Places for Everyone Scheme - a region-wide plan to create new homes and jobs. This means it will lose its green belt status.
Residents in the area told the Local Democracy Reporting Service why they are against the scheme going ahead.
