Residents of Hulme have not been consulted about what happens to the last significant piece of undeveloped (Birley Fields). They are hopping, mad about this and are unimpressed by Manchester City Council's plans, which basically say "more of the same". A “same”, which has not worked so far
The big patch of ‘waste ground’ between Stretford Road and Asda (Birley Fields) is about to be obliterated, along with the other remaining open spaces on either side of Hulme Arch.
Manchester City Council wants to turn all this land into a mixture of offices, housing and other commercial buildings, with just one potential ‘open space’ to cover a tiny fraction of the land.
