I still remember when I came to Manc from smaller place in my native country I hadn't ever dreamed before I would work in some of the skyscrapers visible on the vid. Awesome time, adventurous but I learnt to be bold if I want to win. Worthy to live overthere.
Best city in UK by far about almost everything!!Manchester is simply amazing stunning city!I hope much more skyscrapers will be built in the next years!
London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Liverpool and even Sheffield, Newcastle, Bristol and Portsmouth are all reaching for the sky.... It's good to see the ever improving skylines and infrastructure of these fine English cites. 😊
It's disappointing that Leicester councillors think a 20 storey building is overkill, and you forget to mention one city, and that's Nottingham, I heard the council have granted planning permission on a 47 storey skyscraper.
I love the trend of skyscrapers rising across Europe - it’s about time. Currently, even Southeast Asian countries with a GDP per capita 10 times smaller than most European nations have more impressive cities and simply look wealthier. You don’t see Europe’s wealth reflected in its urban landscapes as much, relative to our GDP and GDP per capita. It's not about showing off, I simply prefer this style instead of seas of old, small buildings. I know not everyone is a fan of this, but I love modern skyscrapers and large, futuristic infrastructure, so I’m happy with this direction. I hope our European cities continue building thousands more skyscrapers in the coming years. No one serious could think our cities will look the same as pre 2000, for decades or centuries. We have thousands of small towns in Europe. People who are not fans of big infrastructure or large cities, could always move to countryside or a smaller town with a population of 10k.
Europe has half of all the world´s cultural heritage. Palaces like no other country. That is way more important than skyscrapers. Besides, most skyscrapers today are not for banks or coporations, but residential. Of course there are more skyscrapers in densely populated cities because there is less space. Has nothing to do with wealth.
I agree, it makes a city look progressive, modern and investable with skyscrapers, although I think it's important to keep the old traditional buildings and blend both together. Warsaw and Frankfurt are examples of cities that do this perfectly.
@@chrisrevill8717 Warsaw and Frankfurt have very nice clean skylines but for some reason Manchester feels more exciting to me feels like an Asian city ...it's like a Japanese city in the way it's growing
a 700 footer skyscraper has just got planning permission, to go in between the 360 tower, and beetham tower...and viadux 2, an 820 footer, is awaiting planning permission
I work in Manchester every day, it's amazing how beautiful and amazing it looks when looking down on the city, very hard to see this when you are so used to the limited views looking up at the very same buildings from the street.
I wish we could get a few like this on the Liverpool waterfront. We've only got a handful of 'high rises' and they all look shite. I think there is talks for a few more to be built over the next few years so hopefully they get decent architects to design them 😂
Must be very patient waiting for the appropriate weather! Melodic! The view in from MCFC is particularly stunning. Champions League gala evenings must be animated. MCFC are experimenting with opening part of the Co-op Live Arena known as The Street, capacity 4,000, for hospitality pre-match.
I agree, the Simpson Haugh buildings making up Deansgate Square (6 or 7 tall towers) give the skyline a "manufactured" appearance rather than one which has evolved with the city, The planners should have insisted on different styles and claddings in my (humble) opinion.
@@Jomo-x6n technically you are allowed to fly over a structure that is higher than 400ft but it has to be sub 250 Gram drone or you have to hold the right flying certificate, depending on the type of drone. In general, I do not bother with flying to hight, I think things look more interesting closer to the ground.
Don’t get me wrong, I am thoroughly enjoying where Manchester’s skyline is going, almost solely led by apartment towers. But in no way is manchesters skyline bigger, or more superior to London’s. So I’m guessing that’s either tongue in cheek comment or an uninformed comment? Even if I just said canary wharf, one of about 6 clusters across London. It’s is significantly superior as a skyline to anything inside of the UK and even Europe (to an extent). London is made up of multiple clusters, of which are home to some of the most amazing skyscrapers that you do not and likely will never see for a long time in other cities in the UK. I am a massive champion of where Manchester is going right now, but a lot of the towers are insanely basic apartment builds with terrible check board cladding all over them. The more diverse towers Manchester starts to get and more height like Viadux 2 which I hope goes ahead, the better (for me). But it needs some iconic towers, even just one. There’s no Gherkin, shard, or even any large commercial office towers yet - which I know doesn’t necessarily define a great skyline, but I think do put it on the global stage for the quality or being more labeled as iconic.
@@ARW.7 It's the density of buildings that gives Manchester the edge. Yea, London has multiple skylines; but none are as big or as dense as Manchester.
@@thebabbler8867 what are you talking about haha. The deansgate estate, and it is pretty much an estate of 6-7 skyscrapers is dense yes. But it’s 6-7 skyscrapers. Have you not seen how dense the city of London is on the ground? Or how many skyscrapers and packed into canary wharf? Manchesters skyline is a couple of sky scrapers in Salford and then the several that are currently forming the deansgate cluster with some extra expansion off that. London is a mega city by comparison and to agree with someone else’s comment above, I think you’re in fact drunk. Get some rest
We are becoming American cities so what else would you expect, I must admit on another post Manchester didn't look as impressive as on this 1 & does look a little like Detroit, I did say on that 1 too how much better Birmingham looked but ime not so sure now, we all reaching for the sky & with out doubt London knocks the spot of all British cities combined but I admire Birmingham love. Peace from north of the border ❤🏴
@@jahmah519 I agree. Thanks for commenting. It helps small channels like this one. I have a new Skyline video of London coming in the next couple of days and new Manchester Skyline with detailed stats of main skyscrapers that you may like and this one in about a week time 👍🙂
When Renaker build the very tall buildings they seem to use the same type of cladding, the skyline looks great but because all the buildings looking the same it's starting to look boring.
@@davidsivills3599 I completely agree. They seem to use the same design language on all highrises down to the smallest details dominated by grey colour. That's why it looks much better at nightfall in my opinion
Also it's all investment fund rented housing, nothing for everyday Joe to buy. All mostly built and funded by Chinese/Far Eastern money too (allegedly) Near me a recent conversion was completed, completely investment housing. Anyone could buy single/multiple units but clause in leases even the owners were not allowed to live/occupy any of the units only rent them out. Sad state of affairs.
Just a shame the transport system is woefully inadequate. A city of that size should have a decent underground subway system. All it has are filthy buses, and a tram that's always breaking down and two car diesel trains that are also very dirty.
Well you can blame our pathetic governments of all colours who persist with this crazy policy that the South East is the only place that merits infrastructure spending on a significant scale. London spent more money on a sewer than Manchester spent on its whole Metrolink system….
I'm surprised Greater Manchester doesn't have a subway yet it's big enough with over 2M population. Crazy! Plus the city wouldn't want government approval for such a project, as there must be enough money for such a project, Manchester is the UKs Northern major trading hub after London.
All very well building high rise flats but Where's the infrastructure..hospitals and schools ? Manchester City Council only concern is collecting the council taxes.
Top video! However not sure if it is worth living in those high rise buildings giving their prices, cheapest one bed starts from £350k to buy and £1800 to rent
@@robtyman4281 Yes for London it's okay, I would even say 350k is cheap for London! but in Manchester for a small 1 bed, £350k seems very expensive, but the city is getting better and more modern, maybe we'll have to get used to the new prices!
@@rasaspa ....I was hinting that it was becoming very expensive, just like London. I saw (in an estate agent's window) a three mid-century terraced house for £975,000!!! My immediate thought was wtf??? ...I mean it was a nice looking house (especially inside), but it's not worth the obey it's being sold for - no way!! ...but it's this price because it's near to Richmond upon Thames - a very affluent suburb of London, plus Richmond Park is nearby....and that's a big bonus, which will bump up the price. But that price was crazy!!
@@robtyman4281I live in a small town in Leicestershire, it takes 57 mins to get to London on a train with the new electrificarion it should take around 50 mins, my town has a growing population of Londoners moving out from a over priced London because two reasons, cheaper housing and cheap rent and secondly has a good rail connection to London, the average house at minimum £450k for a three bedroom house, people who work locally are being priced out due to higher living costs, and the same will happen for local towns around Manchester when Manchester gets too expensive.
Great video of the city, really professional. I think most of these tall buildings are actually quite ugly and boring. There are so many better built tall buildings in London, NYC, Japan, Berlin even in Manchester. Tall buildings cause so many issues, they cast huge shadows, cause wind eddies, people who live in them are detatched from the ground level and life on the street, they are also less likely to socialise and exercise according to research. Tall buildings like the ones shown mostly and towards the end of this video, contrast with the residential areas near it and I read that residents feel they are cut off by the devlopment. The overal landscape of Manchester looks irregular, blocks rising up sparadocially, I guess developers could buy up land and do what they like because the planning laws and design codes are so weak.
Was most of Manchester bombed during WW2? This city is entirely devoid of character and composed of mostly bland commie-block apartments and nondescript towers... looks very depressing.
Massive investment has made a transformational change in the past 10 years alone, though it started before that. Go to Manchester, walk around. It’s becoming pretty impressive
😂😂😂!!yeah loser with backward mentality!!😂😂😂you go in sovietic countries,those are perfect for you!!you are just envious loser!Manchester is simply amazing stunning city!The best city of UK by far!!
You obviously haven't ventured outside thr very small central core. It's a deteriorating mess whilst investors continue to buy up glass boxes in the sky to rent to Mancunians. It's a real shame Manchester has gone down this route.
