This is the Manchester Development update for June 2013. I want to start doing these every 3/4 months or so. The last update was by myself in March 2013.

The ↑UP, ↓DOWN and ↑NEW indicators are based on the time between the last update in March 2013 and this update in June, and are referring to the various stages of the development process; 1) Completed, 2) U/C, 3) Projects Likely to start soon, 4) Projects unlikely to start soon, and, 5) Dead projects. This process is a system.

You may also notice from the below timeline that I have not only ordered projects into U/C, Complete, Starting soon etc - but I've also took the time to put the projects which, say, are most likely to start construction soon at the top. For instance; Motel One on Piccadilly. This has not started construction yet but the demolition process and site clearance is ongoing. This means that Motel One has found itself high up the list of "Projects Likely to Start Very Soon"; because once demolition has complete the building will commence.



Completed Projects
- Projects which have completed since March 2013 (not much doing here!)
- The list of 'stuff' below will drop off the list next time I update it because it is no longer active in terms of construction/development.

- ↑UP East Didsbury Metrolink Extension
- ↑UP Sillavan Way Salford | 6 floors | Apartments





Projects Currently Under Construction
- Projects currently actively under construction; by way of cranes and actual erection of building; NOT by drilling or clearing of site (this does not equate to 'construction'.)
- Projects near the top are ones which I expect to finish and complete soon. Those near the bottom are either newly U/C OR will not complete for a long time (Airport Line 2016)


- TRANSPORT | Salford Crescent Station Redevelopment
- ITV Studios Coronation St | Trafford Wharf
- Manchester Central Library / THX Redevelopment | St Peter's Square
- Birley Fields | Multi Storey Car Park | Hulme
- Whitworth Park/Denmark Road Student Buildings | ~8 floors
- Riverside House Student Accommodation | Blackfriars | 5 floors
- METROLINK | Ashton Under Lyne Metrolink Extension

Projects Likely to Start Construction very soon
- Projects which I think are ready to begin construction.
- Those at the top of the list are ones which are most likely to begin very soon (as in the next few weeks) - those nearer the bottom may pass by a few months before they begin.

Projects which might start construction in the next 5 months
- These projects have less 'tight' schedules. These developments are ones which won't start construction tomorrow; but will probably start within the next 5 months
- The projects nearer the top are most likely to begin sooner rather than later - projects nearer the bottom are most likely to begin later rather than sooner.

Dead Projects or Projects Unlikely to Start in the next 5 Months
- Projects which have either evidently died since the last update (developer gone bust), or
- Projects for which little or no news has come out and it looks as though the development is dead
- River St Tower looked dead to me and it was about to go in this list a week ago, save for the email I got back off them indicating that the project was not dead.
- If no news comes out of projects in this list between now and the next update, the project will be swiped off the list altogether in the next update. That make sense?
