Re: Etihad Campus, Stadium and Collar Site Development Threa

This is an excellent read and is why Manchester and Abu Dhabi are so perfectly matched.

I've said it many times but City are very lucky to have Manchester CC and Howard Bernstein and ADUG should count themselves very lucky to have bough a great club in an even greater city with some great local leaders.

Thanks for that link fbloke, a very interesting article, and some clever politics from Manchester CC. With ADUG on their side they also have considerable access to funds, outside of government.

I read that today! Exciting times for our city. Some of you not in the construction game may not know but sky scrapers galore going up in next 3 years in town!

I enjoyed reading that article. Great stuff.

I have worked in local government for a while and dealt with a number of chief execs and leaders. Believe me, Leese and Bernstein are an excellent partnership. Manchester is lucky to have them. The city has consistently moved forward in the last 20 years, and they deserve a lot of credit for that.

Is it still the case that nothing higher than 25 storeys will be built near the stadium?

Heard anything on the rumoured 60 storey supposedly going up next year.
Not sure about skyscrapers as such, but the amount of apartment and housing schemes plannednfor the city is incredible.

Aye - cracking article by Jenkins (give or take a few discrepancies).

As someone who lives there, and very much likes the place and its people, it is a description that is anachronistic and a soubriquet that is quite frankly, misleading.

Very interesting subject, but I can't help but feel he use 27 words when 3 would do. I was losing the will to live near the end, only to find I wasn't yet half way through.
