Loved the comment on that video...

"lWhen asked about the second city....

Londoner;" Birmingham"
Brummie; "Birmingham"
Manc; "London"

The Brummies and the media in general call Birmingham the 2nd city due to the size of its population. But if you ask most people not from Manchester or Birmingham, with an interest in that subject, they will say Manchester due to it’s status.

The Princess Road Bus Depot stood on Princess Parkway for a century, before its closure and demolition in 2011. It was a depot for Manchester's Trams and later Bus fleets, and a significant building in Moss Side, positioned within the terraced, residential neighbourhood surrounding it.

An industrial, dominant structure, you can see in the views, its removal had a huge impact on the street scene and the urban context. The Buttress scheme created a range of new homes, which stitch together the streets, connecting the community with contemporary dwellings.

Associate David Coulson gave Manchester Society of Architects a tour of The Depot - a transformational project on the site of the former bus depot in South Manchester.

This innovative development, designed for Rowlinson, features over 300 homes, including apartments, family houses, and senior living options, creating a vibrant, inclusive, intergenerational community.

That second picture (Yew Tree Avenue); my uncle used to live on there. It was a cul-de-sac, with the depot at one end of the road, and Parkside Road at the other end. There was a pedestrian path running the length of the depot, from Princess Road to Broadfield Road.

This Sunday morning, I woke up to the sounds of metal being hammered and men shouting as a crane was being assembled right outside my apartment in Manchester.

While the noise isn’t my ideal Sunday wake up call, it’s a reminder of the continuous transformation to our area.

The view from my home will never be the same again and my peaceful morning coffee watching Club de Padel will soon be replaced by the sight of Domis Construction building the new Fusion Group development.

I love how fast our area is growing, bringing so much life and energy. As part of Txtured.Studio an interior design studio, it’s exciting to see these changes. It means more potential work and opportunities for us to contribute to the evolving landscape. Here’s to progress and the vibrant future of Manchester!

It is misleading though and really just a boundary quirk because Greater Manchester is much bigger than the city of Birmingham. The West Midlands is really a region rather than a conurbation like Greater Manchester. If you included the large chunks of surrounding areas like Lancashire and Cheshire the Manchester Metro area is even bigger. I think it is absurd to compare Birmingham with Manchester. It is like saying London is a small city becuase the City of London itself is very small.

I agree.

Coventry is roughly 14 miles from Solihul and is part of the West Midlands region. And even further from the City of Birmingham.

Saying that, Wigan has tenuous links to Gtr Manchester.

The City of London is predominantly a business district in the heart of Gtr London, with a massive transit working population, and a small residential population. It isn’t a city.
 
On the final picture I zoomed in on the roof via my iPad and took a screen grab,.

These incredible aerial photos show the pace of progress being made by BAM UK & Ireland on our Plot 9a development at First Street in Manchester city centre.

Fully let to the Government Property Agency, Plot 9a will be a striking addition to the First Street scheme and the drone shots show off the impressive externals and façade perfectly!

(One Medlock Street and One City Road sites looking lovely and flat, ready to go)

What a great job Awal Investment did with redeveloping Meadow Mill.

If you ever want to see it, it’s just off junction 27, M60, next to the big Tesco Superstore.
