Just a few years ago, Little David Street was overrun with weeds and covered in moss. Chained off and tucked out of view, the 'secret' street was neglected and forgotten.
But, with arrival of a Kampus - a new neighbourhood featuring contemporary apartments and buzzing restaurants and bars - one of Manchester's last remaining cobbled streets was given a major facelift. Restored to its former glory, the development ushered in a new era for the area and opened up a whole host of opportunities for the warehouses that lined either side of the 'secret' street.
The regeneration project brought back into use the Grade II-listed Minto & Turner warehouse and Minshull warehouse, which lay empty by the side of Canal Street for years. Both were restored by developers Capital & Centric and HBD with loft-style apartments and units for hospitality and retail.
