MANCHESTER BUILDING BOOM 2024 | Future Vision To Reality - See it now

Описание: Manchester's building boom continues into 2024 and there is no sign the construction frenzy will slow down any time soon. In this video I move across the 'central swathe' of Manchester from Co-op Live in east Manchester to Trinity Way in Salford in the west, stopping off at a selection of projects along the way. I'm fascinated by the process of designing a building - from a scribble on the back of an envelope to detailed plan, then the construction phase, eventual completion and maybe demolition in the future! At the end of the video I feature some excellent drone views of the Mancunian Way and tall buildings at dusk made by @Cinemaker. Check out his channel.

Not just background music but worth listening to in their own right!

On the AidanEyewitness channel, I produce snapshots of the ongoing development of Manchester, Liverpool and connected cities, focusing especially on new construction, renovation and adaptation of heritage buildings, modern architecture in general, public transport infrastructure, future construction plans as well as questions of urban identity and the uniqueness of cities. I like to document the construction of buildings, taking images at regular intervals and mergin them into timelapse sequences.

I’ve been interested in architecture and city development since I was a child. I was doing projects on Manchester architecture in primary school. From 1997 to 2005 I produced my website Eyewitness in Manchester which documented the reconstructin of the city after the IRA bomb in photos and words. I’ve contributed photos and writing to books, magazines and newspapers. AidanEyewitness is the latest chapter, I dream of a big audience and lots of success, but there is still a long way to go! Please help me by liking, subscribing, sharing, commenting and providing some financial support, so I can fulfil my dream of producing AidanEyewitness full time.
