Most of the changes to the fabric of Manchester over the last two decades have been easy to spot from afar. However, there’s a new project that’s going to dramatically alter the city - and you might not have even heard of it.
It’s called Victoria North, and will see a staggering 15,000 homes built over the next 20 years. They start on the northernmost point of the city centre as it is now — Angel Meadow — and continue up towards Collyhurst.
The enormous project, which was previously known as the Northern Gateway, will add 35,000 people to the city in all. Along with the homes will be a new primary school, tram stop, parkland, GP surgeries, and walking routes, developers hope.
