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.

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.David Coulson - Linkedin
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.
