Manchattan is coming along nicely. So glad to see the world's first industrial metropolis transform itself into a vibrant exciting 21st century wonder.

[@Discobiscuit372]

I live in Liverpool and my partner lives in Salford, Greater Manchester so I spend most of my time over there, I love Manchester, been goin there for over 30 years now and the city just keeps getting bigger and more exciting. ♥️

[@Simonster28]

I know its not a competition but I can't believe how far ahead Manchester is looking compared to Birmingham.

[@MrTSK27]

To be fair it IS a competition...Second City anyone?!!

[@English_Dawn]

@@MrTSK27 When asked about Second City. Londoner "Birmingham". Brummie "Birmingham". Manc "London".

[@Phil_Mitchell]

Yeah, Manchester punches well above it's weight unlike Brum. Although Brum is improving slowly, Manchester beats it in terms culture, sports, media and skyline. Brum only has its population as a reason to claim itself as the 'second city' lol. I imagine the gap is only going to widen when there's inevitable investment around the Trafford area (although not 100% sure if Trafford is considered part of Manchester by Mancs). Even so, if almost everything wasn't so London focused, Manchester could be a good candidate for another UK Olympics in he future

[@rahmij]

Trafford isn't part of the City of Manchester. It has it's own borough Council, totally separate from Manchester City Council. ​@@Phil_Mitchell

[@ARW.7]

Well it is and should be, as competition drives growth!

[@Kevster-dp7tt]

When I was younger I was fascinated with big cities and skyscrapers. Now I'm reaching 60 years of age, that fascination has almost gone and I prefer small quiet seaside towns and villages but if Manchester want to make a serious statement, they need to start building some skyscrapers with an identity. The ones at the moment all look the same. they're pretty characterless. I know it comes down to money but Man Utd and man City have done wonders for the Manchester economy and individual skyscrapers will give Manchester a real identity.

[@PaulK-ve1pu]

Blimey! When I were a lad in Rochdale, used to come to Affleck's Palace at the weekend and the Arndale was the tallest building there. Live in Cornwall now and haven't been to Manchester for years. Coming back soon though; it's like Chicago!

[@invtrk1046]

Wow, Afflecks Palace is still going. You're gonna be surprised to visit the city centre now when you return!

[@andrewsteele1819]

Absolutely brilliant footage love it ❤

[@Roddersville]

Superb footage and soundtrack - and feels almost as if we’re in one of US’s great cities! Manchester’s development hasn’t finished yet either 😁

[@martinbury9223]

Worth the Wait, Never disapointed. 😘👍

THANKS YOU FOR SHARING THIS VIDEO

[@BardhokNdoji]

Thanks for watching

[@richardtempleton8840]

Beautiful aerial video of Manchester.

[@VirtualExerciseChannel]

Nice drone footage!😎😎👍👍

[@davdep]

Manchester is actually quite colourful, great video!

[@eprohoda]

Greetings- yoou uploaded top . 😇

[@English_Dawn]

Fantastic flim, panoramic, moody, edited and colourful. The first of the Trinity Island Towers' quartet a new landmark dramatically catches the eye. The unloved Strangeways area with the prison on the former site of Strangeways Hall, home of the Ducie family is getting some attention. The Echo Street/Vimto Gardens Bowmer/Kirkland will be a landmark. Downtown districts were traditionally for offices, e.g. Canary Wharf. Not really so in Salford & Manchester. Largely residential and pricey, aimed at students and ex -students. Offices are second-best now because of WFH. Mayfield Development, Rylands and House of Fraser apparently seem to be rather stagnating. The jury seems to be still out on Viadux2 with the decision overdue. One project apparently that has been waved through is the Hotspur student building. Much obliged, a joy to watch. 👀

[@thomHD]

One of the only cities in the UK where it's easy to find a smart modern apartment with concierge etc for a grand a month. This is what we need as the population approaches 70 million - not sprawling housing estates or Victorian terraced houses.

[@user-mu4hl3ye2x]

Such a cool 👌 city

[@TheLifeOfDan1]

Absolutely amazing shots. How far Manchester has come. Now only if it could have one or two true ICONIC towers. They’re all pretty generic at the mo!

[@visitandshare]

Superb ❤ Very nice location dear❤ The video is awesome. Have a great weekend ❤

[@j_c2225]

I wish we had some big cities in Ireland

[@English_Dawn]

Please note that railway line through the centre of Mcr, from Piccadilly to Deansgate that features a lot in your shots was constructed by the Manchester South Junction & Altrincham Railway also labelled "Many Short Journeys and Absolute Reliability" was constructed with around 124 arches and 50 million bricks.

[@ianchappytube]

outstanding 🤩

[@roberbonastre3380]

good skyline but it seems a little ugly to me that all the skyscrapers are practically the same with a square design and the same color

[@BardhokNdoji]

Yes, I do hope for some different designs on the new planned and approved projects.

[@parmentier7457]

Nice. It looks a bit like the skyline of Rotterdam.

[@mi......]

that 3:50 shot is fantastic

[@ThomasField-t8i]

Manchester’s focus should now be to build towers in the 400-500M range. London can only build to around 300M.

[@BardhokNdoji]

That’s interesting. Was not aware of a height limit on London high-rises. What is the reason for that?

[@ThomasField-t8i]

@@BardhokNdoji The stupid City Airport. The airport is completely unnecessary considering you have two or three other airports quite close. Also, but I am not completely sure about this, the view to St Paul’s cannot be obstructed.

[@GARdotETH]

Wow! Amazing footage.

[@BardhokNdoji]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@ThomasField-t8i]

Manchester will never compete with London in terms of quality of the Skyscraper build, so it is better Manchester focuses on building them high as possible. London has restrictions to high it can go. This is where Manchester can surpass London.

[@English_Dawn]

Painstaking waiting for the right weather conditions.

[@cartoonvandal]

Wonderful video :) Can't wait for Contour to rise. Anyone any news on Viadux 2?

[@English_Dawn]

@@cartoonvandal As far as I know Viadux2 the decision was due months ago. English Heritage objected to the height of one of the three parts, the 76 storey tower. Since then it seems to have been kicked into the long grass. Sakboy/Domis had planned to sort out the contracts then get on site July onwards with a four year programme. If the 76 storey tower is cut back or eliminated it probably makes the other two parts, the affordable housing tower and public realm improvements, uneconomic. The original plan for Viadux2 was for a fifteen storey office block. Working From Home put paid to that as office building is becoming toxic. House of Fraser, Mayfield and Rylands which included offices also apparently in stasis.

[@cartoonvandal]

@@English_Dawn Thanks for the info. Exactly how much power and what leverage to English heritage have? To put it bluntly, can't they simply be thanked for their opinion and 'ignored'?

[@English_Dawn]

@@cartoonvandal Not sure. It's been delayed thus far. The whole Viadux2 is at risk. Aware of the Hotspur Building on Cambridge Street? Similar situation. Developer wants to build a student tower alongside. Mcr. Metropolitan U. objected saying only 9%(?) were affordable. Council passed it. Perhaps 9% is better than nothing and nothing getting built.

[@English_Dawn]

Thing is, essentially Mcr is flat, so that means the skyline is visible for miles. For example the view from the MCFC Campus, in the evening, with the red rooflights dramatic.

[@BardhokNdoji]

That is actually my next stop but been waiting for weather perfect moment. Believe it or not, it is the view I have from my living room :)

[@michaelkeene4708]

No the view from the stadium to the city.

[@bernardmcmahon351]

Great video, great buildings but. I can’t help wondering how youngsters can afford over £1000 a month,

[@robertcarneyarclocksmiths]

best CITY in the world

[@Wriggs74]

And Salford.

[@BardhokNdoji]

Correct. It is hard to showcase Manchester Skyline without Salford, or vice versa. They both complement each other.

[@churchmouse2096]

Please don’t build a gherkin or shared like London. We do need a very iconic sky scrapper now that beathem tower is getting on a bit. Maybe blue and red twin towers 😮

[@Eyis]

Fantastic drone video please 🙏 follow me 👍👍👍👍👍

[@daveglynn748]

It's big and it's brash' full of tension and fear .....

[@davidowen2396]

Shame the style and sophistication of the architecture isn't reflected in the behaviour in the city centre in the evenings/nights at weekends.....alcohol fuelled parochial behaviour rules sadly

[@AliAliHough]

That's just the UK all over, with London being the exception.

[@rahmij]

It's the same in any medium sized town or City. Manchester is no better or worse than any other City.

[@paulwild3676]

@@AliAliHoughCentral London perhaps. The outskirts like Barking and Dagenham. Trashier than anywhere.

[@davidowen2396]

@@rahmij Yes true. It's a sad fact about UK towns and cities with the exception of London. Not sure why this is such a phenomenon in the UK...something not seen in European cities regardless of size...
