We've had this discussion and I'm pretty sure we agreed to include cranes in town, the Quays and in districts very close to town. I wouldn't have included Eccles but I only do the updates I don't decide what to include or what not to include so I'll wait to see what other forumers want and respond to that. My opinion is that whatever argument could be made for Eccles could be made for almost any location in the conurbation, well certainly within the M60. What do others think?
Crane Count
I've listed everything I can remember, arranged roughly by area.
Southern City Centre
Beetham - 2
River City and surrounding projects - 4
St Georges - 3
Vie - 3
GN Tower - 2
Eagle Star House - 2
University Car Park Cambridge St - 2
MRI Superhospital - 5
Aurora - 1
Western City Centre/Greengate
CJC - 3
Spinningfields NCP - 1
Tempus - 1
Spectrum - 2
red ones near Spectrum - 2
John Rylands Library - 1
GMEN - 1
Rosetti Phase Two - 1
Northern City Centre/Piccadilly
Skyline Central - 3

Issa Quay - 1
Piccadilly Car Park - 1

This gives us 49 in town and 56 including the quays. Phenomenal.
A few more than this I'm sure, what are they people?
Ones to expect soon:

Probably a new Green Quarter one for Jefferson Place

More at spectrum
Sarah Tower perhaps

Hello everyone - hope you like this video and channel
Good afternoon fellow forumers. I have not been on the forum so much lately so I've had a quick look through all the threads but can't see any changes to the crane numbers. It would be helpful if you good folks would let me know of any additions or removals since the last count. Thanks in anticipation. TR
MMU Science and Engineering now down to 1 I believe
-1 New Bailey

+1 Trinity Islands
+1 Island, John Dalton Street
