Manchesters Trinity island development March 2024

More Tower blocks, the facade of the building is going on the lower part and looks similar to some of the other buildings in Manchester.

Manchester looks class now proper city, they need to change the look of next skyscrapers coz they all look pretty samey

[@paulbriody297]

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

[@jonldronevideos]

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

Love the high rises but did Manchester get a job lot silver random cladding

[@jonldronevideos]

I think it’s same architect or similar firms.

[@paulwild3676]

I think uniformity works.

This makes me want to get a drone

They are good fun

Don't worry about that. Thanks for the update 🙂👍. The flying conditions look superb, very 3-D and clear and shows the context of the building with the districts, Wilburn etc. I see more of it's neighbour has been completed at ground level.
Covid19 was a game-changer. Working from home means a whole new paradigm. Purely office building has fallen out of fashion. The old Central Business Districts with soaring towers, a thing of the past?
Residences are in. They are planned with some workspaces for the residents. Viadux2 meant a whole new re-think for Salboy. The planned 15-storey office building dropped. Replaced by a 76-storey resident tower. Wonder if nearby Middlewood Locks is going through the same metamorphosis? Some low-rise housing and offices around "The Nook"? For the same footprint you can get more if you build high.

I filmed this last month and it’s not progressed much since then.

[@jonldronevideos]

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

[@English_Dawn]

​​@@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.

Manchester would take at least 100 years to redevelop and by that time a lot of the first buildings built in the redevelopment will look bad...mainly the ones with the plastic cladding.

[@jonldronevideos]

Continue regeneration

[@blue47er]

What a monstrosity. We left Manchester in 1999, having lived there since the 1960s. It was once a fair city, but what a horror show it has now become. (Your video is very well presented, btw).

[@jonldronevideos]

Thank you, I think you may be right

[@footballfanar9717]

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.

[@blue47er]

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

[@footballfanar9717]

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