Another lost view of Piccadilly ……….1969

You will have to be of a certain age to remember being able to get a clear view of the old Piccadilly Hotel from this spot.

I can, and I also remember using those telephone boxes on the day the new flats to let were advertised in the Manchester Evening News.

Minutes after the midday edition hit the city centre news stands, the telephone lines were fully engaged, and we retreated to the sunken garden to ponder our next option.
