Manchesters Trinity island development March 2024 

I like the fact that they have a similar look. London's hotch-potch is shambolic.

Lot is down to architect and planning. They can’t build them fast enough so keep repeating the same building design makes it easier to build on a mass scale

Thanks

Thanks for watching!

Thanks

Glad you enjoyed it

I think it’s same architect or similar firms.

I think uniformity works.

Thanks glad you enjoyed it

They are good fun

@@jonldronevideos It looks fun! Unsure if neighbours would think I was spying on them :)

@@Greenpoloboy3 yeah wouldn’t fly it near my house 😂

@@jonldronevideos haha!! 😆

Thanks

It doesn’t seem much different from before Christmas to be honest

​​@@jonldronevideos Jon, it's incremental. Renaker are fascinating, not only involved with Trinity Islands but also Colliers Yard and Deansgate Square where a start has been made on the Contours Towers. You can compare the rise of the tower of your subject with it's neighbour over Regent Road. With the promotion of EV's car-parks will have to change, probably from surface which Salford and Mcr have a lot of to below ground or multi-storey. From your film you can see how much land is wasted in Salford in surface car-parks. Mcr and Salford de-populated the centres rapidly, done a 180°, population is returning. This has ramifications for transport and very much for public transport. Maybe before your time but Ordsall Lane once sported a railway station. When you look at St. John's with it's Union towers and St. Michael's Phase 2, residents are back in the centre. St. Michael's are offering prices from £300k to £6m. Swimming-pools, gymnasia are promoted. Thing is, you don't get many people with grey hair in the city centre anymore.

Continue regeneration

Thank you, I think you may be right

Manchester has developed significantly since 1999. New skyscrapers, like this one, only add benefit to the city. It becomes more attractive globally. More well-known. This holds numerous positives. Many cities in the UK live in the 60's with old fashioned, dilapidated buildings that are not fit for purpose. And them cities are a long, long way behind Manchester in many ways.

@@footballfanar9717 Thankyou It's always good to get the other side of the story from a developer.

@@blue47er I'm certainly not a developer, pal.

It’s only the old bags that say this. Do one
