Viadux - 40 stories - Deansgate Locks/Manchester Central

Thank you Rob Mcloughlin from Domis Construction and Carlie Valleley from Salboy for taking the time yesterday to show me and a few colleagues around Viadux yesterday.

To think only a short time ago the pour was being done for the pool so to see the concrete structure of this in place was fantatsic. Carlie Valleley thoughts so testing her diving stance out.

The progress made is immense on this development and ever visit I’m blown away with just how amazing this development is and cannot wait to see the finished product.

I had an opportunity to visit Salboy - Viadux a 40-storey residential development at manchester.

Interesting to see the development progress over an existing listed viaduct next to a fully operational Metrolink tram line.

Kudos to the geotechnical engineer who had to tackle complex piling issues during the initial stages of construction.

So exciting to launch the opening year of Factory International with FirstBreath by artist Luke Jerram. Hundreds of babies will be born in Greater Manchester in January 2023. First Breath will project bright beams of light from the ground to the sky, celebrating their first gasp of breath.

An absolute pleasure to visit Factory International in Manchester last week to view the standing seam installation. High quality engineering, design and production by the BEMO Group team, and outstanding installation quality by Lindner Prater Ltd for Laing O'Rourke

Love the arches on the lower and middle floor windows. Shame it’s not up the whole thing.
 
I need some help.

Does anyone know the name of this Golf course and the address? Can't find any specific info about it. I want to try and get on the golf course or close to the golf course so I can take some up to date pictures of the Manchester skyline. The only information I have is. (thanks)

Thanks, PC.

The clue is 'Werneth Low'. :-)

My golfing skills go as far as pitch and put, but I can walk around the course with a mates bag and irons and my camera.

The club is located to the south east of Manchester and enjoys glorious views of the Cheshire Plain, the Peak District National Park and the City of Manchester.

One Monday it is then, which is handy, as it's one of my days off work.

Stockport has an absolute gem in that Viaduct.
It's extremely unkempt though. Imagine this cleaned, and sensitively lit at night. Kind of monument that would cost a hundred million plus to build from scratch I'd imagine?

Any known plans along these lines?

There are up-lights on each side of the viaduct. Don’t know if they are all still working. They certainly don’t show the viaduct off properly. Stock pictures.

You might do well in the hills around Bollington as well looking over the old Woodford aerospace plant.
