Piccadilly Gardens is being transformed into a football fan zone to celebrate the UEFA Women's Euro 2022 championships starting later this month - and this is what it will look like.
The development will bring big screen football to the gardens once again. And council bosses have revealed the towering structures could be retained to host events in the future, including at Christmas. The possibility of performance spaces, community areas and children's activities being based there are all being mulled over in the town hall.
Contractors are currently on site and the huge metal shipping containers are certainly raising eyebrows, with social media posts comparing the gardens to scenes 'out of The Walking Dead' - the US post-apocalyptic horror series.
