You also forgot to mention the other 'blot on the landscape' which is the shithole (also referred to as old trafford) but I suppose you could argue that it isn't located in Manchester so it doesn't count.

Very interesting flyover Manchester that. Been over 10yrs since I moved over to sunnier climes and I’m amazed by the transformation of the city center especially Deansgate area. A hell of a lot of building work as been done.
Slightly off topic.
Another Mubility Hub is proposed as part of the Holt Town Master Plan.
I wouldn’t be surprised if one was also planned for or close to the Collar site on the Etihad Campus.
North West Construction Hub - Linkedin
Yesterday, the North West Construction Hub team enjoyed a site visit to Ancoats Mobility Hub, an exciting new £24m project being delivered by Bowmer and Kirkland Ltd .
The innovative scheme is a cornerstone for future development plans in Ancoats, and features:
•Over 400 square meters of green wall.
•150 secure bike parking spaces, complete with changing facilities and lockers.
•406 car parking spaces for residents and visitors, with 102 electric vehicle charging points.
•Up to 30 spaces dedicated to car club/ car share schemes.
•A parcel delivery hub.
•Over 400 rooftop solar panels.
• A new commercial unit, and space for a cafe overlooking Ancoats Green.
•1370 square meters of public realm work, seamlessly connecting Ancoats Green.
The project looked fantastic. The green wall is a great example of how we can integrate nature into our built environment to deliver sustainable, forward-thinking urban development. Kudos to the B&K team for bringing this project to life!

Is it simply one vertical strip on a building? Is grass that expensive?
Wow that’s an impressive planting design. Not seen one like that on a NW building before. Kudos to the architect/designer, it’s really good with the glass splitting it from top to bottom.Slightly off topic.
