Didn't know Cheetham Hill had a tram station? :?

These views put to bed all that arse-chuff about Manc having no density.

Great shots there Man Med, the top two are fantastic with the three main u/c projects in one shot. With all the other mid rise development going on the skyline is filling out nicely .Watch out Brum

Sorry caw meant to sort this out 4 u ages ago..

its taken from a footpath off vine st - which is off bury old rd. I took some of the pix from my van to get elevation over the bushes which block some of the views, though from near the top of the footpath you get a nice view of manc centre.

Ahhhh. I actually walked up there from town in the summer cos I thought there would be a good view of town. Couldn't find one. Got lovely Pendleton though (http://www.skyscrapernews.com/images/pics/269ThornCourt_pic5.jpg) :puke:

I'll go back up there when the trees are fully bare, what a viewpoint. :yes:
