Incredible new images of how transformed city centre neighbourhood will look
manchestereveningnews.co.ukDevelopers behind plans to create a huge £1.7bn innovation district in Manchester city centre have unveiled new images of what the finished project could look like as a public consultation opens.
As part of a joint venture between The University of Manchester and Bruntwood SciTech, the ID Manchester district would be nestled by the Mancunian Way and Piccadilly Station.
