All glass and no wall .......... the Collyhurst series no.2

Now I am well aware that this fine new building is not located in Collyhurst, but Andy was on his way there and stopped to record it.

There will be those who don’t like it, but I took a shine to it when it first went up, and unlike those giant towers to the south of the city this one conforms to that simple dictum that it doesn’t dwarf the human being.

And that I think is always a starting point for good architecture.

Location; Manchester

Pictures; that building, 2018, from the collection of Andy Robertson
