Cotton
mills, Morrissey, Man Utd, the Manto, Moss Side ... ah, Manchester.
These days the industrial city from the beautiful north rubs
off more charm than grime, and is giving London a well-earned
run for its money.
Manchester
made cotton its own, giving its collective name to bed linen
and bath towels, but the city has had a rough and tumble track
record. The key to its survival has been its willingness to
embrace change and encourage the spirit of enterprise and innovation.
Bouncing back from the 1996 bombing which destroyed its inner
heart, the city seized the opportunity to revamp the town centre
with new public spaces and some imaginative modern architecture
that actually works. The city's industrial heritage has translated
into prime real estate - just add varnished floorboards and
a visit to Ikea, and you've got warehouse apartment heaven.
As always the city flexes its famed night-time muscle to the
max.
