They barely did any of the landscaping work tbh. They put on that mini seating tier in front of the canal but that's staying as is in front of the new development.

East Village Central Redevelopment approved by MCC executive today. The development plans now go to public consultation. This area concerned is around Stocktons Furniture Store and Store St and the plans include reference to a ‘boulevard’ from Piccadilly to the new CO-OP Arena and
  • 1,400 homes
  • A 300-400 bed hotel
  • A 100-200 bed aparthotel
  • 130,000 sq ft of workspace
  • 70,000 sq ft of leisure, retail, and event space
  • Around 40% green space
It is next to the site where the buildings for the civil service HQ will be built that it set to create up to 7,000 new jobs.

It has indirect significance for City because it's on many fans route to the stadium and it might lead to improved transport links.

I thought "aparthotel" must be a typo, but damn, it's an actual thing.

Christ! Another thing I have to stay alive for!

New training ground, stand extensions, concert venues, fan zones, hotels, museums and now all this. Where will it all end!

Probably they are different. It is 2025, if we don't have one, it's because there are material reasons. I don't know Liverpool, Newcastle or Glasgow's city centre well enough to make a comparison. If I arrived at Manchester Piccadilly, I can walk direct to any destination in Manchester city centre in < 25 minutes. Tube travel would be silly. It would be indirect. There would be dead time. The time saving is not viable in such a small geographical area. If the proposition is to travel further then it could be more time-efficient than walking but then you start to run up against the bus, metro and main-line travel.

Does the Newcastle Metro go underground? It is built on former British Rail tracks rather like the early Metrolink.
