Piccadilly has been a dump for at least 40 years. I no longer live in Manchester so I don't really have much of an opinion about Andy Burnham (as an MP, I didn't like him) so I have no bias here but what solutions are available to him to improve Piccadilly? I am not aware of his powers or budget limitations but may be you do so you can explain how he is failing rather than simply claiming he is doing a bad job.
The proposals to redevelop Piccadilly Gardens have still not been made public yet after years. The plans are still with the architectural teams that have been chosen to redevelop the gardens.
However, parts of the dreaded Berlin Wall that block one side of Piccadilly gardens are being demolished and redeveloped now.
Piccadilly Gardens is still a shit hole with a gangs selling drugs, etc, even after numerous Police crack downs to clean up Piccadilly Gardens.
The person who’s in-charge of Piccadilly Gardens is Manchester Councillor Pat Karney. He’s in-charge of the city centre. Or is supposed to be.
