It's hard problem to create green areas due to lack of space but I still think Manchester CC has not taken advantage of or thought properly about planting more trees. Two examples are Spinningfields Square outside the MEN - before it was redeveloped there used to be quite few trees there but none ever got re-planted, so now its just grey and bland. Also there is quite a large space outside the GMEX, plent of space to plant trees and even a fountain or a sculpture of somekind.
I think a perfect place for a little park would be the car park opposite Spirit on Canal Street, but I think it's owned by NCP.

chasedwar - the little park you discovered is St Johns Gardens and I work in one of those Georgian Town Houses - they are HUGE inside.
